He didn't actually remove it, he just moved it further down the list.

... it's fairly hard to believe that all these patches are really
necessary to fix the problem with "grep -i" that's described in the
checkin message.  It looks as though a more accurate description of this
change would be something like "grep-2.5.1a: import all patches from
RHEL".

Also, although adding --without-included-regex probably is a good thing
(and probably ought to be done for grep-2.14 as well) it's not very
obvious that this has anything to do with the LSB fix either.
