Package: grep
Version: 2.5.4-2
Severity: important
File: /bin/fgrep

Hello. I have two files, foo and bar. Both files contains only digits 
and newlines. I tried to find those lines from bar, which doesnt match 
any lines from foo.

Some characteristics:

$ ls -l foo bar
-rw-r--r-- 1 rekcahx rekcahx 132M 2009-03-19 15:21 bar
-rw-r--r-- 1 rekcahx rekcahx 122M 2009-03-19 15:19 foo

$ wc -l foo bar
   253362 bar
     2604 foo
   255966 total

$ fgrep -v -f foo bar >output

My system crashed when fgrep ate all memory (8 GB) and swap (16 GB).
