Summary

0001314: sed output incorrect in substitution

Description

Running the recently patched sed given the following input (3 lines):
6f 0e fc c6 dd c6 23 af 76 5a 1f e6 6f 34 e2 a3
47 ff 17 ba 8c f7 7e d1 61 00 00

and the following command:
sed -e 's/ *$//g' -e 's/ $..$/\\x\1/g' -e 's/^$.*$$/"\1"/'

Resulting output:
"\x6f\x0e\xfc\xc6\xdd\xc6\x23\xaf\x76\x5a\x1f\xe6\x6f\x34\xe2\xa3"
"\x47\xff\x17\xba\x8c\xf7\x7e\xd1\x61\x00\x00\x \x \x \x \x "
""

When run on a linux box, the resulting output is:
"\x6f\x0e\xfc\xc6\xdd\xc6\x23\xaf\x76\x5a\x1f\xe6\x6f\x34\xe2\xa3"
"\x47\xff\x17\xba\x8c\xf7\x7e\xd1\x61\x00\x00"
""

Adding an additional "-e 's/\\x //g'" does not remove it from the output either. Only piping it to a new sed command will remove the excess "\x " from the end.

Additional Information

I'm poking around to see if I can find a reason for it.

Notes
(0002315) kiltedknight 04-13-07 13:29	OK... it executes the commands given in reverse order instead of the order given on the command line.

(0002317) vda 04-13-07 14:35	This was introduced when getopt32 was fixed to not reverse cumulative option lists. This is already fixed in svn. Please try svn. Thanks.
