Dwight,

I can reproduce your problem using sed 4.0.1, assuming sed actually gets 
some input (if there's no input on standard input, the diagnostic does not 
occur). Changing the pattern separators does not cure the problem. 
Replicating the address range pattern ("<.BLOCKQUOTE>") in the empty 
substitute target pattern does not help.

I'm not a total SED junkie, so maybe there's something I'm overlooking 
here, but it does appear to me to be a bug.
