Question regarding usage of pcre_ucd.c and pcre_tables.c in Poco Foundation #2916

Hello,

I create an issue but in fact this is more a question.
I would like to know if there is any plan to remove the pcre internal code (pcre_ucd.c and pcre_tables.c) from Poco Foundation
https://github.com/pocoproject/poco/blob/master/Foundation/CMakeLists.txt#L42

We have an issue with a project that depend on both Poco and libpcre when build statically as there are symbol collision
(symbol like "_pcre_ucd_stage1" that are present in both Poco and libpcre).
Actually I could do like in this unofficial patch from #120 (comment)
which rename the pcre symbols inside poco so they don't collide but I wanted to know first if there is any plan in the future to remove this Poco's dependency toward this internal code of pcre.

Cheers
Thomas
