When I searched for 'cygpcre-0.dll' at  http://cygwin.com/packages : the 
following is my results.

Found 2 matches for cygpcre-0.dll.

<package-cat.cgi?file=libpcre0%2Flibpcre0-4.4-2&grep=cygpcre-0.htm>libpcre0/libpcre0-4.4-2 
Perl-Compatible Regular Expressions library

<package-cat.cgi?file=libpcre0%2Flibpcre0-4.5-1&grep=cygpcre-0.htm>libpcre0/libpcre0-4.5-1

I know how to use setup, but don't know which package to select, for setup 
to install cygpcre-0.dll.

Thanks,
