Sorry, I don't have a clue, and I cannot try to reproduce this because
I don't have the AFM fonts.

So you will have to dig deeper.  In particular, I don't understand how
does Sed come into play here: as far as I could see, neither afmtodit
nor afmname invoke Sed, and generate/Makefile doesn't invoke Sed for
the AB font.  So I'm at a loss how come Sed complains here, and what
command line is used to invoke Sed.

A few small pieces of advice that might help:

  - use forward slashes wherever you can, for example:

      make -f generate/makefile afmdir=c:/grafm

  - try dropping the drive letter (some scripts aren't ready for
    DOS-style file names), like this:

      make -f generate/makefile afmdir=/grafm

  - make sure you have Sh-utils and Gawk installed (afmname requires
    them), as well as Bash.
