PCRE 8.33 V01 was the first non-experimental version and is the first one that would be kept for historical versions.

PCRE 8.33 V0.2 was short lived because of a bug and was superseded by 8.33 V0.2a.  The difference was minor and the version was not kept.

PCRE 8.33 V0.2a was the version since 8/13/2013.  It supports GETMAIN, FREEMAIN as front ends for malloc and free, the Posix compliant module and pcregrep that handles PDS and PDSE libraries as well as full support for HFS and ZFS.
