That's probably because you just tar xf grep-3.7.tar.xz && cd grep-3.7
&& ./configure && make. This works. But not when configured from the
FreeBSD ports framework, and here's why.
The clue is these lines:
Vanilla ./configure (untainted):
configure:4945: checking build system type
configure:4960: result: x86_64-portbld-freebsd13.0
configure:4980: checking host system type
configure:4994: result: x86_64-portbld-freebsd13.0
>From within the FreeBSD ports framework:
configure:4945: checking build system type
configure:4960: result: amd64-portbld-freebsd13.0
configure:4980: checking host system type
configure:4994: result: amd64-portbld-freebsd13.0
Ports framework does several things which affect GNU configure
scripts, particularly, it replaces build-aux/config.guess file
with our own, where host/build tuples are derived from.
x86_64 is spelled as amd64 in FreeBSD, but ``case "$host_cpu" in''
block has only "i?86 | x86_64 | \" on line 35668 in the configure
script.

If I add "amd64" to that list -> "i?86 | x86_64 | amd64 | \" or
fix the main() argument *argv -> **argv, it behaves correctly as
well.
