Summary:                    --devices=skip broken, please update
Description: 
The current ggrep doesn't seem to honor the -D/--devices=skip option and
hangs on an recursive /etc search. Observed on an Solaris 10 x86 zone.

# truss -elfda /opt/csw/bin/ggrep -D skip -r foo /etc/cron.d/
[...]

The upstream changelog indicates that there has been a related fix [1]
late 2004. ggrep 2.5 seems to be from 2002, so an update would be
appreciated. Latest version is 2.5.4 from this February [2].
