One question about that patch (both original and as revised). Why do we 
need a new binary_safe slot in struct pcre_comp? Shouldn't the 
binary_safe stuff be done at compile-time rather than run-time?

Proposed revised patch attached. It also tweaks commentary slightly, and 
uses a more uniform style in the test comments (something like what 
Carlo suggested, but a bit wordier since it names the characters).
