I discovered a more-artificial case where grep messes up even on modern platforms, namely 'grep -f - -f -' where grep essentially ignores the second '-f -'. I installed the attached to fix that, along with another bug where grep wasn't reporting fclose errors.
I think these bugs are so unlikely and artificial that they're not worth mentioning in NEWS.
As a side effect, this patch might fix the bug#50129 problem on your old platform. Hard to say.
