Dear diary, on Sat, Jun 04, 2005 at 06:15:31PM CEST, I got a letter
where Jonas Fonseca <fonseca@diku.dk> told me that...

I tried hard to prevent this exact behavior since I think this is Bad
Thing (tm), but after all, what the hell... The sed expression has some
portability problems associated.

Thanks, applied.
