Quoting MemorySanitizer docs
(https://clang.llvm.org/docs/MemorySanitizer.html#handling-external-code):

: MemorySanitizer requires that all program code is instrumented.
: This also includes any libraries that the program depends on, even
: libc. Failing to achieve this may result in false reports. For the
: same reason you may need to replace all inline assembly code that
: writes to memory with a pure C/C++ code.

Have you tried compiling PCRE with memory sanitizer as well?
