Does this version work better?
(defun find-grep-dired (dir regexp)
"Find files in DIR containing a regexp REGEXP and start Dired on output.
The command run (after changing into DIR) is
find . -exec grep -s -e REGEXP {} \\\; -ls
Thus ARG can also contain additional grep options."
(interactive "DFind-grep (directory): \nsFind-grep (grep regexp): ")
;; find -exec doesn't allow shell i/o redirections in the command,
;; or we could use `grep -l >/dev/null'
;; We use -type f, not ! -type d, to avoid getting screwed
;; by FIFOs and devices. I'm not sure what's best to do
;; about symlinks, so as far as I know this is not wrong.
(find-dired dir
(concat "-type f -exec grep " find-grep-options " -e "
(shell-quote-argument regexp)
" {} \\\; ")))
