[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I've just pushed the attached to make grep use gnulib's new
getprogname module instead of the classic "progname" module. This
means there is no longer the classic "char const *program_name"
variable, nor any need to call set_program_name.

I've just pushed another gnulib-updating commit, to pull in some
getprogname fixes.
