if you do grep -w strs on "strstr foo" will not give you match, which is right.

It is fixed in 1.22.1:

# echo "strstr foo" | busybox grep -w str
<nothing>
# busybox 2>&1 | head -1
BusyBox v1.22.1 (2014-02-01 19:25:19 CET) multi-call binary.
Comment 2 frank chen 2014-04-02 12:57:15 UTC 
the patch is not in the v1.22.1 patch, and not in the release package.
Comment 3 Denys Vlasenko 2014-04-05 18:34:31 UTC 
1.22.1 contains a partial fix, it requires CONFIG_EXTRA_COMPAT=y in .config file.

Current git has additional fix for non-CONFIG_EXTRA_COMPAT mode.
