No; such a grep program as Solaris /usr/bin/grep is unusable because
1) it accepts only one regular expression, when -e is omitted.
2) it accepts only "limited regular expressions", not "basic regular
   expressions", see
   http://docs.sun.com/db/doc/805-3172/6j31br5ee?q=grep&a=view

The -q option is not the problem, it's only an optimization.
