If the bug is in libpcre3, then this isn't a problem affecting nginx
anymore.  In Debian, we mark this as "blocked by some other bug in some
other software".

I looked at the libpcre3 bug.  This was fixed in later releases other
than 12.04.

The problem with already-released versions of Ubuntu is that version
bumps usually don't happen in software.

I also don't see an exemption from the technical board that would allow
PCRE to be updated to the required version(s).

In nginx, this may already be "enabled" in the nginx side of things,
which makes this "fix released" for the nginx package.  If this feature
doesn't enable in 12.04 due to a bug in the PCRE software, that's a
completely separate bug from this that needs to be resolved separately.
I don't foresee this being fixed in 12.04 though becUse this requires
libpcre3 to be version bumped and I don't see that happening since whole
version bumps on software inside already-released versions of Ubuntu is
super super rare.
