It looks like when there are two matches in the same line, the line is
listed twice?  So I tried the same command on the Emacs tree (with
"regexp" as the regexp) and, indeed:

 2215: 	that debugger code that needs to do regexp match won't break
 2438: 	Fix regexp-opt documentation (bug #17862)
 2440: 	* lisp/emacs-lisp/regexp-opt.el (regexp-opt):
 2440: 	* lisp/emacs-lisp/regexp-opt.el (regexp-opt):

So it this a feature or a bug?
