grep: fix directory recursion on MS-Windows
gnulib recently gained a module, windows-stat-inodes, that fixes
directory recursion on MS-Windows. No changes to grep's C sources are
required; grep simply needs to request the module during configuration.
When grep requests this module, its configure script will gain the
behavior that was implemented in windows-stat-inodes.m4. This detects
mingw and sets WINDOWS_STAT_INODES=1. All other platforms are
unaffected, setting WINDOWS_STAT_INODES=0 (which is what's happening
in the absence of this patch).
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add windows-stat-inodes.
* NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
Thanks to Pär Björklund who diagnosed the problem as involving inodes,
and thanks to Václav Haisman who provided the bootstrap.conf patch.
