Comment:

 This doesn't look like a bug to me.  Existing bindings are discarded when
 a module is loaded, so the binding `msg` is not available after loading
 `Main`.  To avoid this you need to refer to `msg` by name rather than by a
 string, i.e. bind it at the time `grep` is defined, rather than when
 `grep` is run.
