For grep, spell the "40 hex digits" explicitly in the regex, instead
of being lazy with the shell pattern $_x40.

Actually the shell pattern $_x40 was invented so that it can be used
in both shell, grep and sed; there is nothing *lazy* about it.

I share the "are you kidding me?!" with you.  I cannot fathom which
part of that regular expression is too big for them to swallow.

In any case, thanks for a quick fix; can I consider it as signed-off?

Oh, yes!  Sorry about that.  I pulled it from the OS X machine which did
not have S-O-B appropriately configured.
