grep -E is not supported when running on Solaris.
Use egrep instead...


  I thought so, but I never remember which form is more universal.

Does egrep has known problems? If not I will proceed with this change and do the release.

AFAIK not. The (linux) man-page says that egrep is the same as grep -E.

On Solaris grep -E works when using /usr/xpg4/bin/grep, BTW. But you cannot rely on having users /usr/xpg4/bin in front of /usr/bin in the PATH environment.
