Perhaps I should have mentioned that I am not an s-lang programmer. I was 
just trying to get the jed source package from my distribution to compile 
with slang-2. I incorrectly assumed that this was a slang bug, while it 
seems that it is jed that is somewhat outdated. Oh well... I must remember 
to RTFM next time.

Thanks for the clarification. At least now I know that it's rgrep I have 
to patch, instead of slang.


Thanks for your time,
