Lots of people's scripts/get_maintainer.pl files won't have the `x' bit
set because patch(1) is dumb.  So for reliability it's best to always do

	perl ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl

<does that>

: akpm:/usr/src/25> perl scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f fs/ext3/inode.c 
: grep: The -P option is not supported

    that's odd.  `man grep' on this machine says

    -P, --perl-regexp
          Interpret PATTERN as a Perl regular expression.

: fatal: Not a git repository

    it whines about not being run in a git directory, but does a decent
    job anyway.
