Corresponding source code
As it happens I installed a patch for this in the past 24 hours, using the simpler approach similar to what's in bug #17623:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grep.git/commit/?id=c6e3ea61d9f08aa0128a0eb13d31a2fbad376f99
So I'm closing the bug report as 'done'; if there's a problem with the solution, please let me know and we can reopenb the bug.
I'll close bug #17623 as well.
