## #36719 — Alexey Zakhlestin — 2008-03-31T15:36:53+00:00

URL: https://externals.io/message/36719#36719

There is a patch by gwynne, which introduces platform-specific hack
for darwin/macos-x.
http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/php-src/configure.in?r1=1.579.2.52.2.77.2.11&r2=1.579.2.52.2.77.2.12&pathrev=PHP_5_3

It works pretty well, except one small glitch. It is supposed in
patch, that sed is "bsd sed" (note "$SED -nE" on line 187)
"-E" flag is not supported by gnu-sed

By default, osx has bsd sed, so this will work for most people, but
there are some (including me), who install "gnu sed" and put it in
PATH before '/usr/bin/sed'

I attach the patch, which forces use of '/usr/bin/sed' on this line,
while still allowing gnu sed everywhere else.

This line is macos-x specific, so won't hurt other platforms
