That commit was necessary to avoid undefined behavior in libpcre. We can't simply undo the commit (unless you want to reintroduce security holes into grep :-). The current behavior is the best we can do, unless someone fixes libpcre (which doesn't appear to be likely), or unless someone takes the time to write code in grep to work around the problem.
One way forward is suggested in <http://bugs.gnu.org/17245#43>. No doubt there are others. Can you suggest a volunteer to take this on?
