Ah, thanks for pointing out. I understood it as the changes in grep 2.23
were deliberate, and during xenial this caused quite a lot of fallout
which we fixed.
Reverting the behavior for C makes sense. Thus now we still need to find
the actual fix in gnulib. Applying the doc and test to grep itself is
still worthwhile though and should absolutely be part of the SRU.
