If you cherry-pick 1b421e49 first then b62e9113 will also apply
without conflicts other than on ChangeLog. You shouldn't need any of
the subsequent patches related to PCRE. At least none of them are a
regression with respect to 5.9 - nor are any fixing bugs introduced with
the two cherry-picked patches. You don't necessarily need the first of
those two patches other than to make the second apply cleanly but it
doesn't do any harm.

Not being the release manager, I can't answer this part with any
authority. Some of the newer developments are still in a state of
flux.
