System name:		laika
Type and version:	CVAXSTAR 6.4R
Display type:		SM

What were you trying to do?
	search for a string in some files

What's wrong:
	it appears that both /usr/ucb/grep and /bin/grep, when asked to find 
something which turns out to be on the last line of a file with NO new line
after it, don't find or report the occurance of the string

What should have happened:
	it should have found the string! (ggrep does.)

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
