--- Comment #2 from Kyle Evans <kevans at freebsd.org> ---
Let me think on this one; AFAICT the gnugrep that we're replacing never allowed
an optional context argument, so that may actually be one POLA violation too
far for this point in the release cycle. It's tempting to just fix the
documentation and the long option flag to indicate that it's not actually
optional.
