Subject: [PATCH]: Erroneous grep call thows exception in
 compilation-tear-down-arrow-spec-in-margin.
Date: Sun, 13 Oct 2019 13:05:12 +0000

In master:
emacs -Q
C-u M-x grep <CR>
grep --color -nH --null '-syn-' *.el <CR> ; Note the '-syn-' is
                                  ; interpreted by grep as flags.

This throws an exception.

Fix as follows:
