Subject: [PATCH] grep: fails to build grep on a machine which has no PCRE with
 --enable-gcc-warnings

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

If a machine has no PCRE, grep fails to build grep on it du to
-Werror=unused-variable with --enable-gcc-warnings.  I found it on
Fedora 21 (GCC 4.9.2).

$ ./configure --enable-gcc-warnings
