[platform-testers] new snapshot available: sed-4.5.48-58eb


From: Jim Meyering
Subject: [platform-testers] new snapshot available: sed-4.5.48-58eb
Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2018 22:24:00 -0800

I want to release sed-4.6 in the next week or two, so here's
a snapshot of the latest. Please build+test on as many systems as
you can, and let us know how it goes.

Thanks to Assaf Gordon for doing the vast majority of the work this time!

NEWS
========================================
** Improvements

  sed now prints a clear error message when r/R/w/W (and s///w) commands
  are missing a filename. Previously, w/W commands would fail with confusing
  error message, while r/R would be a silent no-op.

  sed now uses fully-buffered output (instead of line-buffered) when
  writing to files. This should noticeably improve performance of "sed -i"
  and other write commands.
  Buffering can be disabled (as before) with "sed -u".

  sed in non-cygwin windows environments (e.g. mingw) now properly handles
  '\n' newlines in -b/--binary mode.

** Bug fixes

  sed no longer accesses invalid memory (heap overflow) when given invalid
  backreferences in 's' command [bug#32082, present at least since sed-4.0.6].

  sed no longer adds extraneous NUL when given s/$//n command.
  [related to bug#32271, present since sed-4.0.7]

  sed no longer accesses invalid memory (heap overflow) with s/$//n regexes.
  [bug#32271, present since sed-4.3].

** New Features

  New option, --debug: print the input sed script in canonical form
  and annotate program execution.
