This is a DJGPP (a.k.a. DOS) port of GNU Sed. Unless you have a
_very_ new port, you will have problems with using that port on
Windows XP, as there are known issues on XP wrt DJGPP programs.
(Microsoft screwed up some of file- and redirection-related system
calls that are used to access long file names from DOS programs.)
I suggest to find a native Windows port of Sed
(gnuwin32.sourceforge.net is one place to look). If you find that not
good enough, or if you must use the DJGPP port for some reason, get
the latest DJGPP binary from here:
