We got sidetracked into a larger picture issues of how to allow platform
ports to selectively call out to external grep depending on the feature
set supported by the external grep implementations.

Later I looked at the original patch, the patch text looked fine (except
that I would have called the field "ignorecase", not "caseless"), but it
wasn't signed off and did not have usable log message.

And then I forgot ;-)

Thanks for a reminder, and thanks Jeff for a resend.
