--- Comment #1 from Duane <parakleta@darkreality.org> ---
I see this was addressed here:

https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/commit/?id=ea62bacb8ac8978cd8f265cc385fd55cec051d1a

I was wondering if it would be possible to please solve this using pcregrep
instead of gnugrep.

pcregrep uses the same engine as gnugrep and so has the same performance, but
it is included as part of the pcre library which is much more likely to be
required by other utilities, and also it doesn't replace any of the existing
BSD commands.
