The dependency seem to be coming from /usr/lib64/libgthread-2.0.la at
least on the system that is failing. The older (--debug output ->
libtool-libpcre-ok.tgz) system does not seem to have the same
dependency.

I still don't understand why libtool does not simply link to
the /usr/lib64/libpcre.so that is there?

This is really annoying...
