[Bug classpath/25841] New: grep -F does not process -w option properly.

Below are two 'grep -F' executions, one with -w, one without it.

The occurrences of XGET in recs.c do NOT appear at all in the -w execution.
And there are five instances of the word XGET in xcall.c, but the -w execution
only reported four of them.  The failure to pick up recs.c is my main concern
since I was looking for all modules that used the XGET function, and didn't get
recs.c using -w.
