FWIW, I see it under Solaris-2.5.

Wasn't there some discussion a while back about this, saying that it
was related to error parsing?

I see this flash by in the minibuffer:

  Parsing error messages...done
  Parsing error messages...

But like Neal, my modeline continually says:

   ... (grep:Compiling run) ...

And this is the output of M-x list-processes:

From the command line this returns immediately:

  $ /bin/sh -c 'grep -in foo_bar_blah *.F /dev/null'
  $ echo $?
  1
