This instantly baffles me on Solaris 10 :

alpha$ ./configure --prefix=/opt/bw --disable-silent-rules \

configure: error: no working 'grep' found
  A working 'grep' command is needed to build GNU Grep.
  This 'grep' should support -e and long lines.
  On Solaris 10, install the package SUNWggrp or SUNWxcu4.
  On Solaris 11, install the package text/gnu-grep or system/xopen/xcu4.
alpha$
alpha$ which grep
/usr/xpg4/bin/grep
alpha$

Baffling.
