--- Comment #2 from Ed Maste <emaste@freebsd.org> ---
Thank you for the report.

I build WITH_BSD_GREP and it doesn't have this problem:

% grep --version
grep (BSD grep) 2.6.0-FreeBSD
% a=3D'now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of the party'
% echo $a | grep -b -o good
24:good

The most likely fix for this in FreeBSD is to wrap up the rest of the work =
to
make BSD_GREP the default.
