After having run the test in issue 1683 and reread the report and
comments of this issue (1637), there is no evidence that we need to
check whether Fontforge was built with --enable-double or -longdouble,
so let's only bump fontforge version requirement (posted as another
Rietveld issue, before having noticed that a patch doing this had
already been posted by Graham), so this work on grep invocation
hopefully will be useful in another context.
