Hmm... this server must have an older version installed.  No such
option listed in man (and it doesn't work when tried).

Any other easy ways to accomplish it, or should I just try to find
a newer grep (this is actually a Solaris box on which I don't have
much access, so I was hoping for a quick fix).
