Hi,
when setting $MAKE to "/usr/bin/grc -es /usr/bin/make" in /etc/portage/bashrc
with grc-1.0.6 every emerge operation utilising make ends with an overflow
error from grcat:

Traceback (most recent call last): 
  File "/usr/bin/grcat", line 127, in ? 
    m = pattern['regexp'](line, pos) 
OverflowError: signed integer is greater than maximum

The latest version from upstream (1.0.8) seems to fix this as I don't get that
error anymore.

As this version is in for over a year now - shouldn't it get unmasked as the
stable version has the bug?
