A quick google search reveals that NetBSD and FreeBSD use GNU grep, while 
OpenBSD uses BSD grep, which (at least according to the man page - see 
http://tinyurl.com/cs2unf) does not support GREP_OPTIONS. It seems that 
work is underway to port the BSD grep to FreeBSD and NeetBSD.

See http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi for a comprehensive list of manual 
pages for many popular unices. It seems that many greps do not support 
GREP_OPTIONS.
