FWIW for quite a couple of recent builds, `pu` fails on Windows with a variation of this error:

	    CC blob.o
	In file included from revision.h:5:0,
			 from bisect.c:4:
	grep.h:16:19: fatal error: pcre2.h: No such file or directory
	 #include <pcre2.h>
			   ^
	compilation terminated.
Maybe this can be fixed before hitting `next`?

Ciao, Dscho
