[sed] segfault when using hu_HU.UTF8 locale

Using sed-4.2.1 and the hu_HU.UTF8 locale on Arch Linux, I get a segfault while building binutils. I have reduced the relevant files sed is operating on from binutils to as minimal test case as I could (attached). Replicate the crash using:

LANG="hu_HU.UTF-8" sed -f targmatch.sed < config.bfd

Note I am not 100% sure this is the fault of sed. glibc-2.14 gives a segfault with:
*** glibc detected *** sed: malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0907ecd0 ***
while running with glibc-2.13 does not (although valgrind still reports some interesting memory access only with that locale).

Unfortunately I have not had the time to trace this any further, but I am interested to see if this is able to be replicated by others.

Thanks,
Allan
