Yes Philip, your guess about the 8MB Mac OS X' stack size is correct.
Luckily I found a way to increase the stack size at link time and thus get rid
of the --disable-stack-for-recursion option.
These are the links to the relevant documents I found, in case anyone is
interested:

- How to increase the stack size on MAC OS X

I found that 12MB of stack memory is enough to pass all the tests so the final
configure invocation to build pcre-7.7 and link the executables with the static
version of zlib becomes:
./configure --enable-utf8 --enable-unicode-properties --disable-shared
--enable-pcregrep-libz CFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
LDFLAGS=-Wl,-search_paths_first,-stack_size,c00000,-stack_addr,c0000000
Feel free to close this bug as INVALID.
