It didn't end up being exactly this issue but it seems to be a grep issue nonetheless. I've submitted a patch [1] which should resolve the issue (I tested it on a freebsd12 VM locally). The TLDR of the issue is that grep 2.5 (GNU or BSD) doesn't seem to recognise `\s` (or its inverted counterpart) as ERE but newer GNU (and potentially other) grep versions do. 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/20230715025512.7574-1-jacobabel@xxxxxxxxxx/
