State-Changed-Why:

Does this still happen?

I tried it with the following commands:
$ while :; do echo -n "`date`  -" ; fortune all | wc; done | grep -w 0
and
$ while :; do echo -n "`date`  -" ; fortune all | grep "This fortune brought to you by" | wc; done
But on both I got absolutely zero results.

I'm currently running 6.2-PRE from late Dec '06, and it's still there (I =

get

lots of non-zero from your scriptlet).  I'll pull up to 6-STABLE again =

and let

you know.  I don't have an experimental-enough box to try it on 7.x.
