Compiling Mod_security With PCRE (significant Performance Increase)

From the ModSecurity manual:

Quote:

By default ModSecurity relies on the regular expression library built into Apache for pattern matching.
This works well with Apache 2.x but not so much with Apache 1.x. The Apache 1.x regular expression
engine is several times slower. Since 1.9.2 it is possible to compile ModSecurity for Apache 1.x against
an external regular expression library (PCRE, [url] the same library used in Apache 2.x)
and achieve significant performance increase. This is achieved with the USE_PCRE compile-time flag.

If you have PCRE already installed on your system it may be sufficient to compile ModSecurity like this:

Code:
# <apache1-home>/bin/apxs -DUSE_PCRE -cia mod_security.c

Ok, so I tried and got this error:

Code:
[root@servidor1 customapache]# apxs -DUSE_PCRE -cia mod_security.c
gcc -DLINUX=22 -DHAVE_SET_DUMPABLE -I/usr/include/gdbm -DMOD_SSL=208128 -DUSE_HSREGEX -DEAPI -fpic -DSHARED_MODULE -I/usr/include/apache -DUS
E_PCRE -c mod_security.c

mod_security.c:929: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once

mod_security.c: In function `my_regexec':
mod_security.c:940: error: `PCRE_ERROR_NOMATCH' undeclared (first use in this function)
apxs:Break: Command failed with rc=1
I double checked if I have PCRE installed:

Code:
[root@servidor1 customapache]# yum search pcre
pcre.i386 4.5-3.2.RHEL4 installed
Matched from:
pcre
Perl-compatible regular expression library.
PCRE has its own native API, but a set of "wrapper" functions that are based on
the POSIX API are also supplied in the library libpcreposix. Note that this
just provides a POSIX calling interface to PCRE: the regular expressions
themselves still follow Perl syntax and semantics. The header file
for the POSIX-style functions is called pcreposix.h.

And I even located the /lib/libpcre.so.0.0.1 and copied it to /usr/lib/apache/libpcre.so, with no sucess. Got the same error.

Has anyone sucessfully compiled mod_security with PCRE and can help me?
