Found the problem, apparently it was caused by the /usr/bin/sed command
being overwritten with a 0 byte file, caused by the following in the
post-install script:
@${SED} 's;PREFIX;${PREFIX};' < ${FILESDIR}/apache.sh.tmpl > \
${SED} 's;PERL5;${PERL5};' > ${PREFIX}/etc/rc.d/apache.sh.tmpl;
Sed needs to be downloaded and the re-installed into /usr/bin.
The ">" at the end of the first line is causing sed to be overwritten on the
second line, it should have been a "|" instead. Or the command should have
been written as shown in the test/Makefile below:
>test/Makefile
>
>FILESDIR=files
>PREFIX="/usr/local"
>PERL5="/usr/local/bin/perl"
>CAT="/bin/cat"
>SED="/usr/bin/sed"
>SH="/bin/sh"
>
>install:
> @${CAT} ${FILESDIR}/apache.sh.tmpl | \
> ${SED} -e 's;PREFIX;${PREFIX};' -e 's;PERL5;${PERL5};' >
apache.sh

A few more tweaks, and it should be ready to submit.
