While building glibc with busybox as part of the development environment, I found a bug in glibc's regexec can throw sed into an endless loop. This fixes it. Should I put an #ifdef around it or something? (Note, this patch also contains the "this is not gnu sed 4.0" hack I posted earlier, which is also needed to build glibc...)
