bug#64887: grep build for windows `grep.exe` not working.

successfully build grep for windows on MSYS2. no errors. but it shows nothing for "grep.exe -h"​, "grep --version"​ or any other supplied argument. here is what i tried PS D:\CodePlayground\grep\src> ls Directory: D:\CodePlayground\grep\src -a 7/27/2023 5:25 AM
