grep breakage

[Sam Steingold]

emacs -Q
(setq compilation-auto-jump-to-first-error t)
M-x grep RET foo bar RET

==>
echo area:
Grep exited abnormally with code 2

minibuffer:
Find this grep hit in (default Grep started at Tue Feb  8 18): ~/

*grep* buffer:
the left fringe arrow points to the second line in the buffer:
Grep started at Tue Feb  8 18:56:45


even without compilation-auto-jump-to-first-error, you can use
compilation-next-error to see that grep thinks that "Grep started..." is
the first match.
