pcre libs from http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Languages/pcre-8.41/

Configuring source with options:
./configure --enable-agent --with-iconv-include=/usr/local/include --with-iconv-lib=/usr/local/lib/hpux32 --with-libpcre=/usr/local/lib/hpux32 --with-libpcre-include=/usr/local/include
fails with:
checking for libpcre support... configure: error: Unable to use libpcre (libpcre check failed)

According to config.log, pcreposix lib is wrongly expected at /usr/local/lib/hpux32/lib, though should be at /usr/local/lib/hpux32/
configure:10511: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib/hpux32/lib conftest.c -lm -lpcreposix -lpcre >&5
ld: Can't find library for -lpcreposix
Fatal error.

Configuring --with-libpcre=/usr/local/lib/hpux32/lib fails when searching in /usr/local/lib/hpux32/lib/lib

Workaround:
Create /usr/local/lib/hpux32/lib and link libpcre*, libpcreposix* files to /usr/local/lib/hpux32/
-bash-4.4# ll /usr/local/lib/hpux32/lib
