Re: [Ltib] Patch for building PCRE on systems with grep 2.7

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Mark,

Thanks very much for the patch.  As soon I get a bit of time to apply,
test I'll get it into CVS.

Regarding 'sed', let's leave it for now but it's good to know that
there's a fix if it goes "bad".

Thanks again, Stuart
