I agree :) But the first language we've got here is C. Rather than
fiddle around with getconf, awk/sed etc. why not just the rather
trivial:

I mainly copied the pcre2-config template I added in 95ca1f987ed
(grep/pcre2: better support invalid UTF-8 haystacks, 2021-01-24), which
likewise would have been quite a bit more complex to do from non-C.
