I've got a breakage in bin/csh

  $ make depend
  grep '[FV]_' /usr/src/bin/csh/../../contrib/tcsh/ed.defns.c | grep '^#define' >> ed.defns.h
  grep 'ERR_' /usr/src/bin/csh/../../contrib/tcsh/sh.err.c | grep '^#define' >> sh.err.h

  $ printenv | fgrep -i grep
  GREP_COLOR=1;33
  GREP_OPTIONS=--color --exclude \*.svn\*

I think it should behave like ls(1) and gnu grep(1) and strip color
sequences if stdout is not associated with terminal.
