[Sorry for piggy-backing, I have already deleted the original mail :( ] Just a quick note: grep_source_init_buf() is only called from grep.c:1833, before its definition at grep.c:1869, so it could be marked as static (as things stand). Do you anticipate any future callers from outside of grep.c? (after removing the declaration from grep.h, you would need to add a forward declaration or, better, move the definition to before the call (or the call (and grep_buffer()) after the definition)).
