Thanks for your report. This is reproducible in Intrepid. I suspect that
this is one of those multibyte bugs of grep.

Does it work correctly with the following command:
LANG=C grep -w alloca kernel/pid.c

Can you post the output of the command : locale

Thanks in advance.

grep -w doesn't always grab whole words
