Please import the latest version, which is 3.7.4 currently. I am especially
interested in the change https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/pull/2124.
This would enable opencpn (last unarr user) to drop unarr support and rely
on libarchive exclusively.

Also, you can configure with ENABLE_PCRE2POSIX with later versions.

Yes, this is still relevant. Currently, the libc-based POSIX regex
implementation is built.
