* bug#23219: 25.0.92; Find command cannot be customized for grep-find

On one of my machines, the GNU Find utility's executable file is named
'gfind'.  To have xref-collect-matches work, I customized
grep-find-command to have the value "gfind", but the find-grep pipe
used after that still tried to invoke 'find', not 'gfind'.  Looking
around, I see that grep-compute-defaults effectively ignores
grep-find-command and uses the value of find-program instead.  Now,
find-program is a defvar, so it wasn't supposed to be customized.  Its
value is never changed, no matter what are your customizations.

How am I supposed to make this stuff work in this situation?  If the
solution is to poke find-program, it should be defcustom, and I
shouldn't need to customize 2 variables to begin with.  Why isn't
find-program get the value from grep-find-command?  Am I missing
something?

You need grep-find-template, not grep-find-command.

Yes, it's a mess. Auto-computed custom variable values don't make much 
sense to me either, but maybe the idea is if you want to change the 
program to use as 'find', it'll likely have a slightly different syntax 
(not in your case, though), and grep-compute-defaults might fail to 
work, so you're better off customizing the end values.

It's the other way around: grep-compute-defaults sets grep-find-command 
using the value of find-program.

I see.  But if only the name of the program's executable changes, then
customizing everything would be an overkill, IMO.

OK, suggested patch below.  Thanks for the feedback.

I didn't mean to suggest renaming the variables. At the very least, we'd 
need obsolete aliases, as they're likely to be used in some third party 
code.

Also, grep-grep-program looks weird.

Does grep-apply-setting expect the new variables? Its docstring disagrees.

I don't think it's a good idea to have, say, 'find-program' in grep.el
without a prefix.

Right, will do.

I can make it grep-program again.

I will double-check.

Thanks.
