[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Just after pushing the fix for that heap-clobbering bug,
http://debbugs.gnu.org/22127, I noticed there was another minor
problem: sed would silently elide any invalid byte specified in a
substitution replacement string.

Here's a patch that's not quite complete (no NEWS entry, and I haven't
yet tried to determine when it was introduced).
