  Letters in an error message don't just randomly change between upper and
lower case for no reason.  Either you two are using different versions of
grep, or Shailesh did not accurately report the *actual* error message that he
was *actually* seeing.

  Perhaps this would be a good occasion to remind everyone of the first rule
of bug-reporting:

  "Cut and paste it.  Don't retype it by hand, because you WILL screw up.
Every single time.  Guaranteed."

    cheers,
      DaveK
