+	  Where GNU sed doesnt follow the posix standard, do as GNU sed does.
+	  Current difference are in
+	    - N command with odd number of lines (see GNU sed info page)
+	    - Blanks before substitution flags eg.
+	        GNU sed interprets 's/a/b/ g' as 's/a/b/g'
+		Standard says 's/a/b/ g' should be 's/a/b/;g'
+	    - GNU sed allows blanks between a '!' and the function.
