I should be more precise:

Historically, building ports/www/apache22 with WITH_MPM=itk set, would
randomly bail out with the exact same error shown below.  It would fail
about 80% of the time.  The solution was to continually do "make clean ;
make install".  Do not let 5 or 6 repeated failures make you think that
it's 100% of the time -- there were times where I could repeat its
failure 15-20 times in a row, then suddenly it would work.

Now with the ports/www/apache22-itk-mpm stub port, the problem I
described above still happens (without the need for WITH_MPM=itk though,
obviously).

Proof that the "make clean ; make install" repetition methodology works:

$ pkg_info | grep apache
apache-itk-2.2.17_1 Version 2.2.x of Apache web server with itk MPM.

The PCRE problem really does seem like something similar, because it
only happens some of the time.

What have the autotools changed as of late (past 6-8 months) which could
be causing this?  CC'ing ade@ for answers/assistance.

I'm more than happy to provide full debugging details (they will be
long) of the problem, including what certain configure script variables
look like during failure and during success.
