With recent 'grep' you can work around the problem by configuring
--with-included-regex. That has some other undesirable properties, though.
This is really a glibc bug
<https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18986> and the glibc
patch could be applied to the Debian copy of glibc. Here's the patch:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/commit/?id=5513b40999149090987a0341c018d05d3eea1272
In other words, Debian bug #186568 is really a glibc bug, not a grep
bug. Can you please fix the Debian bug report accordingly? I'll CC: this
message there.
