A bunch of tests are currently failing e.g. on FreeBSD like this:
082 fail [13:38:58] [13:38:59] 0.5s output
mismatch (see .../build/tests/qemu-iotests/scratch/qcow2-file-082/082.out.bad)

Format specific information:

This happens because the sed statements require GNU sed. Let's use
gsed in these spots to get it fixed.

Let's use > gsed in these spots to get it fixed. gsed is not installed by that name on all machines... \me checks Ah, common.rc defines a function gsed that calls the appropriate sed. No objection to the patch as-is, although a mention of the common.rc existence of gsed might help the next reader who sees just the commit message and wonders about it like I did. -- Eric Blake, Principal Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc.
