Greetings!
    Sed fails to deal with `P' and `D' commands correctly.
The patch for `P' bug was trivial.  However, I didn't know
enough about sed's behaviour wrt `D' to complete that patch.
So, I opted for the FSF sed, instead.

Which begs the (silly?) question:  Is there a reason to avoid
FSF tools?  The GPL??  RSVP via private e-mail, if that is
appropriate ;-)

Happy New Year's!
