I feel I have answered to Nikita's question back in March, but as I don't see my comment here in the bug report, maybe something failed before it got submitted.

Anyway, the answer is yes, I encountered a specific issue after upgrading that I would have paid more attention to during upgrade, had I seen that my regexes might potentially break. I don't remember the exact error message anymore.

I know there's mention of changes to PCRE elsewhere, but I think it would be proper to put a link on https://php.net/migration73.incompatible pointing to https://wiki.php.net/rfc/pcre2-migration

If you want, I can submit the patch myself. Should I wait until the status changes to verified?

There is also a short section about the PCRE ugrade elsewhere in
the migration guide:
<https://www.php.net/manual/en/migration73.other-changes.php#migration73.other-changes.pcre>

Is there anything in particular that requires documentation here? Did you encounter some specific issue? The quoted section is mostly concerned with changes that are not user-visible.

Description:
------------
---
From manual page: https://php.net/migration73.incompatible
---
The section "Backward Incompatible Changes" on https://wiki.php.net/rfc/pcre2-migration
mentions many issues that would be nice to know before upgrading.
At the very least a link to this section should be provided on this migration page.
