I've just noticed that my patch also fixes this case:

echo "this is a test, this is another" | ./grep -w --color "is a"

which previously incorrectly colored thus:

this [is a] test, this [is a]nother

(where square brackets mark the colored bits). I've also found that grep -Fw is much more seriously broken -- not just affecting coloring, as I first thought -- and misses matching lines in some cases. I'm working on a patch.

I haven't been able to create a savannah account, but my email address is in the patch; feel free to contact me that way.
 
I've run "make check", and there's a single failure (spencer test 55), but that seems to fail with unmodified grep 2.5.1 anyway.

Looks like the reason I couldn't create a savannah account was because there's a problem with the email address I also used in the patch. (Today is not going well.)
