I worry about the awk line buffers. Solaris awk isn't up to the job, but
nawk is. I've reinstated some GREP logic that tries /bin/grep and
/usr/bin/grep but does  not try /usr/xpg4/bin/grep, this works on
Solaris 2.6 x86, Solaris 8 SPARC, SuSE Linux 7.3, 8.1, 8.2 x86 and
FreeBSD 4-STABLE x86. That should be good enough for the moment.

Anyone feel free to report any "make check" failures on _your_ system
though.
