This returns 2048.

Anyway, I don't think this issue will be specific to hydra.nixos.org.
I hope eg that you can reproduce it on your own systems using an
artificially lengthened PATH=/some/long/dummy/thing/.../$PATH
such that the directory with "sed" is beyond 4096 characters from the
start of PATH.
