Actually I see the opposite behavior -- sed eats CRs on an up-to-date Git for Windows SDK:

   $ uname -s
   MINGW64_NT-10.0-22621
   $ printf 'a\r\n' | hexdump.exe -C
   00000000  61 0d 0a                                          |a..|
   00000003
   $ printf 'a\r\n' | sed '' | hexdump.exe -C
   00000000  61 0a                                             |a.|
   00000002

And with the following patch on top of eea7033409 (The twelfth batch, 2022-11-14) the test suite passes for me -- just one case of grep stealing CRs seems to need adjustment to make mingw_test_cmp unnecessary:
