Still broken. Never heard anything back on this. I don't see
anything in NEWS saying that this change is by design. It is
an annoyance, IMO.
The first time you use `grep', there is no problem, but if you
repeat `grep' from the *grep* buffer, point ends up at the end
of the output.
FYI, I'm using Cygwin grep (but I don't imagine it makes a difference).
In GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
of 2007-06-02 on RELEASE
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600
configured using `configure --with-gcc (3.4) --cflags -Ic:/gnuwin32/include'

Would you like to debug WHY it fails?

Sorry, I really don't have the time now.

Same with GnuWin32 grep (GNU grep) 2.5.1

I think I have fixed this. Does it work properly now?

Sorry, I wanted to test this, but I ran into too much trouble. I downloaded
the latest grep.el, but it wouldn't load in Emacs 22.1 because of the
changed file-remote-p signature. I downloaded the latest files.el to get
file-remote-p, but files.el wouldn't load either because of
declare-function. I have no idea where declare-function is defined, and I
don't want to continue chasing this.
You probably fixed it fine. Sorry I couldn't be more help testing it.
Perhaps someone else can confirm the fix.
(If GNU posted Windows binaries of CVS Emacs, I might keep more up-to-date.)

It's really not a big deal to have a working build environment on
Windows. Lennart's site has all the instructions, and there are a few
people here to help if you run into trouble.

You should set up a machine to run GNU/Linux.
Not only will it be easier for you to build on,
but you will start getting used to free software
so that someday you can escape to the Free World.
