Oh, perfect!  Thank you once again.  Happy new year.

Interestingly, while running tests of the just-updated code, I've just
noticed an unrelated false-positive failure on fast systems: I will
adjust the mb-non-UTF8-performance test to be more adaptive: rather
than using a fixed-size input, I'll choose one that is large enough to
make the unibyte grep invocation take a certain amount of time.

Once that's resolved, I'll make a pre-release snapshot, planning to
let that soak for a couple weeks before releasing grep-2.23.
