The problem seems to go away if you remove the quoted end-of-line:

sed -e 's/\${COGITO_LIB}/\${COGITO_LIB:-\/home\/david\/lib\/cogito\/}/g;
        s/\${COGITO_SHARE}/\${COGITO_SHARE:-\/home\/david\/share\/cogito\/}/g'


where the following, doesn't:

sed -e 's/\${COGITO_LIB}/\${COGITO_LIB:-\/home\/david\/lib\/cogito\/}/g; \
        s/\${COGITO_SHARE}/\${COGITO_SHARE:-\/home\/david\/share\/cogito\/}/g'
