Thanks for the report.

Yes - more information is needed.

This error comes from 'init.cfg' in the 'require_selinux_' function.
It happens when the system supports SELinux (based on
/proc/filesystems), but during the './configure' step, somehow
the generated Makefile did not contain a 'CONFIG_HEADER = config.h'
statement (very strange).

Could you provide the exact commands you've used to build 'sed' ?
Also, are you building sed from latest 'git' repository or from
a released tarball ?

And, if possible, please attach the following files (but compress them
before attaching them):
  config.log
  config.status
  config.h
  Makefile


regards,
  - assaf
