Your patch works great. By the way I think we should move "cached"
check from grep_cache() into external_grep() too, for consistency.

I thought of tests when I wrote the patch, but it was hard to find a
reliable way to detect if a git build supports external grep. Perhaps
this on top of yours? The way to check for external grep support isn't
nice, but it works.
