Running mandb -c I get this with the 10.40 version of pcre2...

mandb: warning: /usr/local/share/man/man3/pcre2demo.3.zst: whatis parse for pcre2demo(3) failed

pcre2demo(3) is a man page that lists the pcre2demo.c program so that it is available to those who don't necessarily have the PCRE2 source files. I have modified the script that generates it so that the output from "man" is still a valid C program, but the source no longer causes "mandb -c" or lexgrog to grumble. At least, not on my box - please reopen this if there is still an issue.

Thanks! We'll see if it causes any more issues after the next tagged pcre2 release, when we package again!
