Strange that they would use a bash shebang when there's nothing bash-specific in there. That adds an unnecessary dependency to that shell. That means however that one could call egrep as: env 'BASH_FUNC_echo%%=() { :; }' egrep to remove that warning. You could make your replacement script #! /bin/bash - / exec -a "$0" grep -E "$@" for it to mention egrep in its error messages.
