Now using 0.51-4 source, on hppa, and sed still appears to be
broken.  Now it isn't appending '\n' to its output lines, so all
output appears as one continuous line:

Test file:

richard@slab:~/bin$ cat Release| sed -n '/^[Mm][Dd]5[Ss][Uu][Mm]/,/^[^ ]/p'
md5sum: e940164e4afe8cd2059629d898efd795               81 main/binary-hppa/Release 5942a65bc7c2e735b45a0ced9fa64349            67079 main/binary-hppa/Packages f2932b0670399550fcb878050e007a12            21317 main/binary-hppa/Packages.gz

This would appear to be because a call to chomp() has been added
to sed.c:process_file().
