     Type:  defect            |      Status:  new                 
 Priority:  Normal            |   Milestone:                      
Component:  ports             |     Version:  1.7.1               
 Keywords:                    |        Port:  pcre++              
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 Other C++-type ports with ++ in the names have those plus signs replaced
 by '''x''' (eg [browser:trunk/dports/devel/libsigcxx2/Portfile
 libsigcxx2], [browser:trunk/dports/textproc/libxmlxx2/Portfile libxmlxx2])
 to avoid potential issues with a standard regex character.  It would
 appear it has no dependents, once I escaped the pluses in {{{port echo
 depends:pcre\\+\\+}}} so I'm guessing it shouldn't be too painful.
