Flag	Description	10.47
bzip2	Add support for pcregrep command to search within bzip2-compressed files (via <pkg>app-arch/bzip2</pkg>).	✓
jit	Enable just-in-time compilation for improved performance. May prevent use of some PaX memory protection features in Gentoo Hardened.	⊕
libedit	Use the libedit library (replacement for readline)	✓
pcre16	Build PCRE library for 16 bit characters (e.g. UTF-16).	⊕
pcre32	Build PCRE library for 32 bit characters (e.g. UTF-32).	⊕
readline	Add support for command line editing to pcretest, through <pkg>sys-libs/readline</pkg>.	⊕
static-libs	Build static versions of dynamic libraries as well	✓
unicode	Add support for Unicode	✓
valgrind	Enable annotations for accuracy. May slow down runtime slightly. Safe to use even if not currently using dev-debug/valgrind	✓
zlib	Add support for pcregrep command to search within gzip-compressed files (via <pkg>virtual/zlib</pkg>).	✓
