libpcre-devel: no .a files

LS,

this package has the .dll.a files but not the .a files:

$ zgrep '\.a$' /etc/setup/libpcre-devel.lst.gz
usr/lib/libpcre.dll.a
usr/lib/libpcre16.dll.a
usr/lib/libpcrecpp.dll.a
usr/lib/libpcreposix.dll.a

I checked the libpcre build from source, the .a files are built,
but apparently they are not included in the devel package.
I would like to ask the maintainer to include them in a next
release.

Kind regards,

Teun
