It does not use grep.

I cannot reproduce the described bevaiour.

Can you tell us what OS and plugin version you are using?

Please be as specific as you can. For plugin version, the output of
check_procs --version is strongly preferred. For OS, be as specific as
you can. Also kernel version and the version of ps used can be
significant.

Also, the exact comment that you see this behaviour with.

If this can be confirmed, it is a bug and we will do our best to fix it.
