I no longer have a BSD handy to test, so I'd appreciate it if somebody can do a quick sanity check.

Subject: [PATCH] t4055: avoid BSD/GNU sed incompatibilty issues

The 'a', 'i' and 'c' commands that take literal lines to be added followed by backslash does not seem to work reliably on some BSD systems. Avoid it by having an extra line in a template file and generate test vectors by deleting the line or replacing the line.
