I think it's time for our PCRE to officially fork from the original version.

Up until this point we've tried to keep it in a state where we can easily merge, but we haven't merged often and there aren't a lot of improvements in the newer versions that we want.

If we remove the features we don't use at all we should be able to get some speed-up without even making any real changes.
