Details:

This is my first time posting, so I hope no one has already posted this. I'm
using grep 2.5 on windows XP.

When I run grep with the -i option the match color does not display. Please
note that with or without the -i command, I always see the same grep output
when my regexp is "someInst"...the problem here is the color highlight
match.

The examples below show what happens:

grep --color=always -e "someInst" *.h

The output of this command has the highlighting.

grep -i --color=always -e "someInst" *.h

The output of this command does NOT have the highlighting.

I believe this is a bug.
