Well it works for me too and as the OP of the problem, I extend my thanks to
both of you and all the others who helped in debugging and coming up with

My only remaining question is can we assume that this bug (or bad coding) is
grep-specific or is it likely to rear its head in other core *nix utilities
that use UTF-8?
