Completely untested. I haven't tried even to start the pike on any OS.
Changes since Pike 7.6.112
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Changes in Pike:
o Fixed infinite loop that could occur when feeding Image.XBM with
  malformed data.
o Added option "file" to Image.PS.decode().
o Image.PS.decode() now reads nonblocking from the pipes.
o Added "Regexp.PCRE.Widestring" to the feature list.
o Added more methods to enable the buggy unicode decode support in
  Mysql.mysql:
* "broken-unicode" as charset to create() or set_charset().
* set_unicode_decode_mode (-1).
Note that all this only applies when compiling with a mysql client
  lib older than 4.1.0. Otherwise these methods are aliases to
  enabling the normal unicode decode support. This means that no code
  using broken-unicode should rely on the BINARY flag on text fields
  to avoid utf-8 decoding.
Build fixes:
o Mird: Renamed FDATASYNC() to MIRD_FDATASYNC() to avoid clash with
  NetBSD header-files.
