+Subject: [PATCH] [BUILD] Fixed Makefile for linking pcre
+
+If both make parameters USE_PCRE and USE_STATIC_PCRE are set to 1
+while building haproxy, pcre gets linked in dynamically.
+
+Therefore we check if USE_STATIC_PCRE was explicitely enabled to
+ommit the CFLAGS and LDFLAGS normally set if USE_PCRE is enabled.
