You could help with two things. One is to try this with grep version 3.11, which is the latest. The other is to provide a transcript of what commands you give and all the output. For instance, you mention "our build process", but that tells us very little about what grep is being asked to do or the context within which it is running. You mention this command: "grep -r 'pattern' /path/to/directory", but don't list the contents of /path/to/directory. Also, are "pattern" and "/path/to/directory" literally correct, or are they placeholders for text that you have redacted? (Likely the directory name isn't critical for the problem, but the exact pattern likely is.) This web page gives some good advice for dealing with situations like this: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html Dale
