We already import almost all patches from unofficial source The Fedora 
Project (at the moment of the last touch by tjr@), see explanations at
/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/grep/FREEBSD-upgrade
why released version of grep is so bad.

Exactly, we have 2.5.1 + unofficial patches while the latest official 
version is 2.5.1a.

We may continue trying to match Fedora or GNU CVS but need to decide which 
source is best today (and need to formally update to 2.5.1a first although 
2.5.1 vs 2.5.1a changes are cosmetical).
