Public bug reported:

Grep 2.5.1.ds2-6build1

The following statements
echo 2 | grep '^[[:digit:]]+$'
echo 2 | grep '^[0123456789]+$'
should both print 2 because the regular expression is stating that lines that 
consist of only digits should be printed. 

Neither prints anything.

Although,
echo 2 | grep '^[[:digit:]]*$'
and
echo 2 | grep '^[0123456789]*$'
both print 2.
