Running grep 2.20 on Debian Jessie.
Apparently grep is not processing the GREP_OPTIONS
environment variable.
That's odd; in the master sources GREP_OPTIONS still works; it's just that it's
deprecated and issues a warning. Perhaps Debian has changed that?
Anyway, GREP_OPTIONS is deprecated because of correctness and security issues
caused by having environment variables change the behavior of standard commands.
If you want your grep to default to -i, you can create a script called 'grep'
that invokes /usr/bin/grep -i, and put your script in your PATH before /usr/bin.
