While compiling a software, which is configured with: --with-pcre=/opt/local enabled, the following warning appears:

[…]
checking for libpcre installation... using /opt/local
checking pcre-config version... 8.37
checking for CVE-2015-3210... yes
configure: WARNING: The installed pcre version may contain a security bug. Please upgrade to 8.38 or later: http://www.pcre.org.
checking for pcre.h in /opt/local... checking pcre.h usability... yes
checking pcre.h presence... yes
checking for pcre.h... yes
checking for pcre_compile in -lpcre... yes
configure: Compiling and linking with libpcre from /opt/local
[…]

I know, this is just a warning. But a warning, pointing me to the fact, that there is a newer pcre available and so causing me filing this ticket. Please update the pcre portfile's version number soon, so that this compiler warning no longer is necessary.

Thanks for the ticket. Oddly, the PCRE website still says 8.37 is the latest version.
