Hello,
I don't think grep should really care about this.
I'd say that some combination of find & grep could solve the problem.
Even if grep -r treated special files specially, you'd get trapped by
"regular files" like /proc/kcore.
Well, I'm not the grep maintainer, so this is just my opinion, not
an official statement in any sense.
HTH,
