26.1; rgrep uses null byte instead of colon separator |

Reproduce:
1. mkdir -p /tmp/tmp
2. echo foo >/tmp/tmp/tmp
1. emacs -Q
2. M-x rgrep RET foo RET * RET /tmp/tmp RET
3. Move point onto the first colon in ./tmp:1:foo
and press C-u C-x =
3. Move point onto the first colon in ./tmp:1:foo
and press C-u C-x =
For the commands that actually run grep, like M-x grep, both of these
colons are actually colons. For rgrep (and I would guess the other
commands implemented in Emacs Lisp), the first colon is a NUL byte
displayed as a colon.
This breaks wgrep.el for rgrep, which parses for the two colons in each
line.

Right.

Thanks. You can always close a bug by writing to
address@hidden instead of just address@hidden (where
NNNN is the bug number).
