Noticed after the recent update of Mavericks GNU ed, %l does not print lineend markers '$' when GNU ed is compiled and run on OSX Mavericks with the G flag.... running without -G flag seems to be okay.
You may wonder why I am using GNU ed on OSX instead of the BSD version and the answer is simply that GNU ed supports the '#' comment command syntax and BSD ed does not.
