Thanks.  I've fixed it slightly differently (using @EGREP@).

Greetings,

Sadly, not all grep(1) implementations support -e, this is the case
for Solaris 10's /usr/bin/grep.

The attached patch uses the grep found by configure in preference to
hard-coding the use of grep, and assuming it accepts -e.

Regards,
