That's not it sadly :o(

Well... it's hard to tell. The "mock" buildroot is just a minimal linux 
install, but it has all the standard GNU utils - there's nothing weird 
about /bin/grep in it.

I can't speak for what "rpmbuild" is setup to do inside "mock", however, 
and I suspect that it might be aliasing or otherwise fiddling with what 
"@grep" ends up pointing to. I've no idea how to troubleshoot that, 
though...

I hate building software...
