grep(1) documents the "--exclude-dir" option, but running "grep" complains it's unknown. Also, 'rgrep' doesn't exist. It turns out that the grep binary is GNU grep 2.5.1, while bsdgrep supports the option. Is WITH_BSD_GREP supposed to be defaulted to on for 12.0 and newer, or was the man page switched over too soon? -- Rebecca Cran bcran@freebsd.org
