Seems \s is buggy in this grep version with a non UTF-8 locale
setting. Observe:

$ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 grep -nE '\<(int|unsigned) ([^(]* )*(i|j|k)(\s|,|;)' 
src/conf/interface_conf.h
$ LANG=C grep -nE '\<(int|unsigned) ([^(]* )*(i|j|k)(\s|,|;)' 
src/conf/interface_conf.h
135:    int autoconf;    /* only useful if family is ipv6 */
167:    unsigned int active:1;           /* 1 if interface is active (up) */

Alas, grep does not colorize anything in the output line in that case
(even with --color=always), just as if it does not match anything.

According to grep's info pages \s should be equivalent to [[:space:]],
but it is not, as the latter works alright:

$ LANG=C grep -nE '\<(int|unsigned) ([^(]*)*(i|j|k)([[:space:]]|,|;)' 
src/conf/interface_conf.h 

So, I think the right fix would be to avoid \s altogether and use
[[:space:]] instead.
