Two negative answers; you can't upgrade PCRE easily, because various
Python-specific patches need to be made to it.  I have an alpha
release of a module based on a more recent version of PCRE, but it's
very early work.  Also, there isn't a way to tell what version of PCRE
you have; simply referring to the version of Python is sufficient,
because it's only going to change with new Python releases.
