Actually, it does. libpcre.so.0 and libpcre.so.1 are *not* compatible. Shared library versions work like this: Let's say we have version x.y.z, then what you do is this: You increase z if you only did minor changes that don't change the API at all. You increase y if you add something to the API. You increase x if you changed the API in an incompatible way.
Unfortunately, this is just a convention, not a rule; you may expect it to be this way, but you must not depend on it.
Bye, Axel.
