All is well as long as GNU grep is not at version 2.6 or later, so maybe check for that first. Even for later versions it likely only breaks when the sort order is set to sort lower case letters before upper case ones _and_ grep produces an error code on that rather than silently reversing the range expression as it apparently did until version 2.5. > 1.

That would most likely wreak serious havoc with path / file names that contain UTF-8 characters if they are not just passed through. But one could use LC_COLLATE=C (or LC_COLLATE=POSIX) in the environment that calls texi2dvi and that should fix it. Maybe someone with one of the newer grep versions could try it and report if this indeed helps.
