Subject: Re: bin/144441: sed(1): Confusing error message from sed with 
        's/.*/d' ": unescaped newline inside substitute pattern
Date: Mon, 15 Mar 2010 03:41:44 -0700

     Someone appears to have inadvertently fixed this between 8.x and CURRENT:
 
 [gcoo...@bayonetta
 /scratch/src/head/tools/regression/usr.bin/hexdump]$ sed 's/games:/d'
 /etc/passwd
 sed: 1: "s/games:/d": unterminated substitute in regular expression
 [gcoo...@bayonetta /scratch/src/head/tools/regression/usr.bin/hexdump]$ uname 
-a
 FreeBSD bayonetta.localdomain 9.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #2: Thu
 Mar  4 13:16:39 PST 2010
 gcoo...@bayonetta.localdomain:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/BAYONETTA  amd64
 
     This statement makes much more logical sense than the one
 currently reported in 8-STABLE.
     I believe r197362 did the trick, but I need to verify whether or
 not this is true. If it isn't that change then it's most likely
 r197361.
 Thanks,
