OS X's GNU grep does not support -P/--perl-regexp; use egrep instead,
avoiding non-portable braces ({}) as well.

I'd rather see the basic BRE grep used if you are shooting for

There are some oddballs in the source (git-submodule.sh is a notable
offender) but none of the core-ish scripts uses egrep nor "grep -E".
