This appears to break the rpm-native build with:

| checking whether to build with Lua library... no
| ++ executing failure action
| ++ mapping --with-pcre=yes to --with-pcre="external:internal:none"
| ++ searching location: external
| ++ searching location: internal
| -- skipping not existing local sub-directory: pcre
| ++ searching location: none
| -- no operation
| checking pcre.h usability... no
| checking pcre.h presence... no
| checking for pcre.h... no
| checking for pcre_compile in -lpcre... no
| checking whether to build with PCRE library... no
| ++ executing failure action
| configure: error: PCRE is mandatory. If you don't have  libpcre then --with-pcre=internal could be used
| ERROR: oe_runconf failed
| ERROR: Function 'do_configure' failed (see /media/build2/builds/rptest/b2/tmp/work/x86_64-linux/rpm-native-5.4.0-r17/temp/log.do_configure.8572 for further information)
