Bug in grep version 2.5.1

Hello,

egrep and fgrep are having following contents after the install on a solaris
2.6 machine.

parimiv> cat /usr/local/gnu/bin/fgrep
#!/bin/sh
exec grep -F ${1+"$@"}

parimiv> cat /usr/local/gnu/bin/egrep
#!/bin/sh
exec grep -E ${1+"$@"}

If I have /usr/bin before /usr/local/gnu/bin in my PATH egrep runs grep from
/usr/bin.
Can this be fixed by making it a full path like /usr/local/gnu/bin/grep or
by having separate executables for egrep and fgrep or just making them
hardlinks to grep?

Man page is also not properly getting installed.

parimiv> cat /usr/local/gnu/man/man1/egrep
.so man1/grep.1


Thanks
-Venkatesh
