Anyway, my point is that your system's libpcre may or may not have that feature enabled. If it does not, then regex-pcre won't be able to deal with Unicode characters properly and that issue should be reported to Debian.
I'd be surprised if that's what's happening; Debian has been all-Unicode for quite a while now, and PCRE libraries are high-profile enough that lack of Unicode support would have been reported long ago. I dimly recall that there are multiple PCRE libraries in Debian, with subtle differences. I could imagine that one of them operates in 8-bit mode by default and wants a flag somewhere to activate Unicode processing.
