I've got a notion to change this. The -CURRENT grep is also very
misleading w/ ``grep -l'' in that you will get "hits" on binary files
because you can't see that "is a binary file" message to know better.
The output of that message should be asked for with an option, not the
default. I can't imagine how many people are going to get weird/eronious
output from scripts now due to it.
