Grep-2.6.2 will hang on "grep -Ff foo bar" if foo contains an empty

Thanks for the report.
However, so far, I am unable to reproduce that.
Please provide more details:
- type of CPU and OS you are using
I am running Arch Linux and get the issue on both i686 and x86_64. Grep
is configured with:
./configure --prefix=/usr --bindir=/bin --without-included-regex
- the contents of your "foo" and "bar" files
I replicate using your example:
printf 'a\n\nb\n' > foo
seq 10 > bar
grep -Ff foo bar
