The reason of this problem is that the regex library haven't proper
interface to specify that we want case insensitive matching.

Fortunately, the regex implementation in newest glibc CVS fixes this.
(It was written by Isamu Hasegawa from IBM Japan, as far as I know.)

grep should use this newest library.  I hope to post a fix in a week
or two.

Thank you very much for your bug report,
