Hello Chuck,

thanks for your notes. It seems very strange to me, because GNU grep 
produces the same output for me. Apart from this, the -v flag was really 
broken, but I applied some fixes before updating the port and in the 
version, which I committer, I thought that the -v flag was compatible.

Here is what I get at the moment:

 > /usr/bin/grep -V
grep (GNU grep) 2.5.1-FreeBSD

It's still the same, thus I don't understand how you could produce that 
output with GNU grep.

Best,
