I am not sure what grep does not like about my home directory, but as
soon as I issue a "grep -R Testtext *" in my home dir grep will start to
hang not triggering any further disk access after a short while.
Tried to get a backtrace by installing coreutils-debuginfo and
coreutils-debugsource but gdb does not find any symbols:
> rpm -ql coreutils-debugsource coreutils-debuginfo|grep grep
> (nothing found)
i.e.
> gdb
> attach pid
> bt
... does not provide any useful output
