Thank you for reporting that.
However, there has never been an occurrence of the string PRCE in the
upstream sources, so this is probably due to a distribution-specific patch
in use on your system.  Also note that there have been significant fixes
and improvements since grep-2.16.  The latest is grep-2.21.
