other/5515: ./configure fails: sed: Function s%@subdirs@% cp cannot be parsed.

That WAS GNU sed.  Same result (different error message) from AIX sed.  (I
tried that first to make sure it wasn't something I could bypass without a
PR.)

BTW, sorry, Zack, I erroneously attributed your analysis to Craig.

Hmmm.  Can you get a copy of GNU sed and repeat the test with it installed
ahead of AIX sed in your PATH, please?
