Hi Guix,

The check phase or quilt (below) currently fails (guix commit 
aecc6e70587f8412cbbb9b2c13141de4f534518e). Maybe something with newer grep 
from core-updates? I'm not sure yet (which is why there is no patch 😁).

Yes, apparently grep 3.8 now warns when characters that don't need to be
escaped are, since it is UB according to POSIX.  Maybe quilt has
resolved the issue upstream and needs to be updated?

Guix distributes quilt version 0.66, there is a version 0.67 that quilt
released as a tarball in 2022 but this version still has the bug in its
test suite as it relates to the latest grep.

I just tried, at the time of writing the HEAD (as cloned) of the git
repo of quilt successfully goes through the check target of its Makefile.

I got it through:
git clone https://git.savannah.nongnu.org/git/quilt.git
And I completed the make check with their commit:
c1ce964f3e9312100a60f03c1e1fdd601e1911f2

I have a dire need for quilt to build in guix because I use
netcat-openbsd a lot.  For practical reasons, it would be much better
(for me) if a fix could hit the master branch quickly. Buf if
not... well, I suppose this can be worked around with a special quilt
and a special netcat-openbsd package.

Hi everyone,

This should fix the build and also update quilt.

+Subject: Avoid warnings with grep 3.8
+
+GNU grep version 3.8 became more strict about needless quoting in
+patterns. We have one occurrence of that in quilt, where "/"
+characters are being quoted by default. There are cases where they
+indeed need to be quoted (typically when used in a sed s/// command)
+but most of the time they do not, and this results in the following
+warning:
+
+grep: warning: stray \ before /
+
+So rename quote_bre() to quote_sed_re(), and introduce
+quote_grep_re() which does not quote "/".

It seems I applied basically the same patch and didn't see this patch.
Sorry!
