This patch fixes several problems with fgrep:

1) The command fgrep -f searchlist gets the following error message:
      wordlist too large
   if the searchlist is too long, in the test case it was 1500 entries.

2) The command fgrep -f searchlist displays datafiles verbatim if the
   searchlist has blank lines.

This patch fixes a problem in which the grep
command with the -w switch does not work as documented.


PROBLEM: (89117) (PATCH ID: OSF445-617)
********
Grep command was hanging while executing with '-w' and '-f' options, if a 
blank line is present in the pattern file. To resolve this problem, an 
additional check was included in the function check_list() to consider 
the pattern '\n'.
