Thanks for the bug report. I installed the attached patch. It uses a 
hand-maintained date, which is more likely to give the user the (accurate) 
impression that the grep man page is not the focus of our documentation efforts.

Hi,

As reported in https://bugs.debian.org/863437 line 23 (the .TH macro) in
grep.1 contains a not defined `Dt' macro.

Please, consider something like the attached patch to fix it.

Thanks,

Santiago
