grep errors

[Geoff Hardin]

There were errors encountered during the 'make check' portion of
building grep version 2.5.  Additional errors were encountered because
the test files (tests/*.sh ) were not executable.  After making that
change, I still ran into this one failure.

Environment:
Sun SPARC Solaris 9
gcc (GCC) 3.4.2
GNU bash, version 2.05.0(1)-release (sparc-sun-solaris2.9)

Make check output:
Please, do not be alarmed if some of the tests failed.
Report them to <address@hidden>,
with the line number, the name of the file,
and grep version number 'grep --version'.
Make sure you have the word grep in the subject.
Thank You.
