I'm running GNU grep version 1.3, not 1.4 (our Internet link is
being flaky right now or I'd FTP it.) I don't know whether
these problems are fixed in 1.4 or not.
1. The -y alias for -i is not recognized.
2. "grep -v -c foo < /dev/null" claims that it found one not-match.
standard greps report 0.
3. Underbar is considered a word delimiter in gnu grep, but
not in standard grep. That means that this:
grep -c foo << EOF
this is foo
foo_bar
but is foobar the same?
EOF
finds 2 matches with gnu grep and 1 with standard greps.
