There is also a version that has been compiled against a newer version of PCRE and supports unicode and x64 builds by Francimar Alves here. The downside of these builds is that they haven't been optimized for size - so they are much larger than the original version. You can use UPX to get them down to a reasonable size. This version seems to fix a bug in the original with handling large strings (>500 chars), which would cause the NSIS process to lock up.
