| Well osx's sed is just posix sed, exactly the same of bsd sed. |
| 7 |
| We depends on gsed for things which, imho, could be done using posix |
| 8 |
| sed. Mainly the position of -i param, or the douple -e (which could be |
| 9 |
| merged into a single expression). |
| 10 |
| Probably both osx sed and bsd sed could be used without a bit of a |
| 11 |
| trouble for portage purposes, with some tweaks here and there. |

OSX sed does not do -i at all. Read up on the original "why OSX cannot |
| 14 |
PROVIDE sed-4" discussion. |
