grep bug found

Hi,

I have found a bug in gnu-grep 2.4.2

cat /etc/passwd | cut -d":" -f3 | grep [0-9][0-9][0-9]

this line gives the following output on my system : 

65534
500
501
503
512
513
514

(which is the correct behaviour I guess)
but when doing e.g. a 
touch 567
which creates the file 567 (I have done all this in my homedir)

the line with cat above doesnt give me any output !!

until this bug is fixed, is there perhaps another temporary solution to get all 
uids with at least 3 digits ??

regards

Dennis Lubert
