702e183cf6 Multiple `-e' to egrep are not portable. On IRIX 6.5 and Solaris
2.5.1 only the last one is honored:
  > echo "foonbar" | egrep -e 'foo' -e 'bar'
  bar
  > echo "foonbar" | egrep -e 'bar' -e 'foo'
  foo
Reported by Nicolas Joly.
An alternative would have to use `sed', unfortunately alternation
is not portable.
