I am adding a few notes about building on Mac OS X.
The following tools may be needed:

a too old version is installed with XCode or OS X (I use 4.0.5, but I assume later versions work also) ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/sed/
Well, I have 3.02 here (very old) and didn't notice any problems.
I don't know what bizarre version of sed Apple distributes - the default system sed on Mac OS X doesn't have a version switch and gpc reports that it is "crippled".
[G5:~] adriaan% strings `which sed-old` | grep Regents The Regents of the University of California. All rights reserved.
So, it's a FreeBSD sed (not a "too old version")
