Hi Paolo, This issue was never a release blocker. As far as I was concerned, the only prerequisite for switching back to binary-based egrep and fgrep was a patch to implement that. A week ago, I would have been very receptive to a change that reintroduced those binaries (presented with or without a reverting commit), but I am about to make another pre-release snapshot, so even if you had the patch right now, I would be reluctant to accept it.
