Update of bug #17623 (project grep):

                  Status:                    None => Fixed                  
             Open/Closed:                    Open => Closed

Follow-up Comment #7:

I installed a patch for this, so that -r does not follow symlinks or read
devices (but -R still does, for those who prefer this):

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grep.git/commit/?id=c6e3ea61d9f08aa0128a0eb13d31a2fbad376f99

So I'm closing the bug report as 'fixed'; if there's a problem with the
solution, please let me know and we can reopen the bug.
