+      http://github.com/erlang/otp/commit/bb6370a2. The hunk for the
+      testsuite does not apply cleanly and is not needed for the fix so was
+      stripped. This fix is part of the current upstream OTP release R13B04.

+
+    Fix CVE-2008-2371 (outer level option with alternatives caused crash).
+    
+    The patch is from:
+    http://vcs.pcre.org/viewvc?revision=360&view=revision
+    
+    Test case:
+    re:compile(<<"(?i)[\xc3\xa9\xc3\xbd]|[\xc3\xa9\xc3\xbdA]">>, [unicode]).
+    
+    An option change at the start of a pattern that had top-level
+    alternatives could cause overwriting and/or a crash.
+    
+    This potential security problem was recorded as CVE-2008-2371.
