You may find that all it really neds is the regex.h file.
On my SCO Open Server 3 machine,
configure finds regcomp and therefor will not test for pcre
but there is no regex.h in the system include files.

If I grab regex.h from the HylaFAX sources it's quite happy with regex.
The regex functions are indeed in the system libraries.
Open Server 3 just doesn't have regex.h

Perhaps we could add it as fake-regex.h (it's only 3.6k)
and in compat.c do a 

#ifdef HAVE_LIBPCRE
#  include <pcreposix.h>
#else /* Use native regex libraries */
#ifdef HAVE_REGEX_H
#  include <regex.h>
#else
#  include <fake-regex.h>
#endif /* HAVE_REGEX_H */
#endif /* HAVE_LIBPCRE */
