Fwiw, I just came across a pcre binding for guile(*), here:
https://github.com/NalaGinrut/guile-pcre-ffi
I didn't try it and I have no idea about the general quality and robustness of
the
binding, last updated 4y ago it seems, but the code is really small, uses the
ffi,
so it should be quite easy to patch if necessary and may be fun to 'resurrect'
