I had a quick look at the code, and it seems to me that it is doing
something very wrong... I do not know why it is working here ;-)

Anyway, can you try the attached patch? Maybe it fixes the problem that
you are seeing.

BTW, is anyone interested in maintaining grab.c? I am looking at this
problem, but this is the last time: I do not want to maintain it.


			Thanks,
