Update to 7.3:

Release 7.3 28-Aug-07
---------------------

Most changes are bug fixes. Some that are not:

1. There is some support for Perl 5.10's experimental "backtracking control
   verbs" such as (*PRUNE).

2. UTF-8 checking is now as per RFC 3629 instead of RFC 2279; this is more
   restrictive in the strings it accepts.

3. Checking for potential integer overflow has been made more dynamic, and as a
   consequence there is no longer a hard limit on the size of a subpattern that
   has a limited repeat count.

4. When CRLF is a valid line-ending sequence, pcre_exec() and pcre_dfa_exec()
   no longer advance by two characters instead of one when an unanchored match
   fails at CRLF if there are explicit CR or LF matches within the pattern.
   This gets rid of some anomalous effects that previously occurred.

5. Some PCRE-specific settings for varying the newline options at the start of
   a pattern have been added.
