+BUILDING PCRE ON NATIVE Z/OS
+
+z/OS and z/VM are operating systems for mainframe computers, produced by IBM.
+The character code used is EBCDIC, not ASCII or Unicode. In z/OS, UNIX APIs and
+applications can be supported through UNIX System Services, and in such an
+environment PCRE can be built in the same way as in other systems. However, in
+native z/OS (without UNIX System Services) and in z/VM, special ports are
+required. For details, please see this web site:
