So in C locale where each byte is supposed to be a single character, that implementation of "sed" refuses to match a byte with high-bit set when given a pattern '.'?

That is a surprising breakage, I would have to say.

Can anybody with a more vanilla BSD try the above out and report what happens? I am mostly interested to see if this was inherited from BSD or something MacOS introduced.
