Subject: possible sed bug? (\r at EOL stripped in pipe [no file involved])
Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2002 09:43:10 -0600

The sed that I downloaded w/1.3.6 seems to strip
the carriage return at EOL - nothing to do w/mount points;
it is doing this in a pipe (no file involved).

See below:

Problem under 1.3.6:
