Follow-up Comment #1, bug #17274 (project grep):
Thanks for the report. This error appears to be fixed in CVS:
$ echo -e 'blah blubb\nb' | grep -Fw b
b
$ echo -e 'DESKTOP\nCDRW DUALXP SATA DE' | grep -Fw DE
CDRW DUALXP SATA DE
$ grep --version | head -1
GNU grep 2.5.1-cvs
It was fixed probably by the commit on April 27 last year, mainly as a
rection to patch #1834 . Apparenlty not all distros apply the same patches
to their greps. This is the essential diff:
