The change from 2 to 1 is explained by the revised code in pcregrep; now
it is returning "no match" instead of "failed to open a directory"
(which overrides "no match").
So... why are these tests failing, I wonder?
Aha! Those tests (35 and 36) were changed for the new pcregrep (and some
more tests were added). I think that explains it. If you download the
latest version of RunGrepTest, I think (hope) that it will work. It
should certainly behave differently... :-)
