Hi,

This port expects a proper grep(1) complete with GNU extensions. For the time
being, use the more up to date version of GNU grep, textproc/gnugrep, rather
than relying on GNU extensions in base grep. This was identified in a recent
exp-run to test installing BSD grep as /usr/bin/grep and disable GNU grep
compatibility in the process.
