   OK - I'll check that.

   However, I'm started reporting this as a bug in grep, not in Fedora. 
It isn't of much use for people collecting the grep source from the GNU
repository if fixes are only in a Fedora distribution as additonal
patches.

   I'm now getting a little confused as to whether I'm talking to Fedora
development or Grep development.  The Changelog at savannah.gnu.org
indicates that my original fix (reported as fixed in Fedora) has gone
into the GNU code.  (However, I can't run CVS through my firewall, so I
can't download CVS code...)
