Hello,
  thank you for taking care to report the bug.

> > grep 2.0d doesn't properly support multi-line strings.

GNU grep in not able to search for multiline strings and there are no plans
to enhance it this way, sorry.  Perhaps GNU awk (gawk), GNU sed, or a more
general programming language with regex support (perl, ruby, python, PHP)
could help you.

BTW: your version is very old, find a newer version on a Windows port
of gnu utilities.  The following URLs could help you:

http://www.cygwin.com
http://www.delorie.com
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net
