Feel free to add this stuff to the build system, as long as it works  
on all platforms.  an older sed is installed on everything in the  
auto-build farm.  But it might save more trouble in the long run to

Terrorism is not an enemy.  It cannot be defeated.  It's a tactic.   
It's about as sensible to say we declare war on night attacks and  
expect we're going to win that war.  We're not going to win the war  
on terrorism.        - retired U.S. Army general, William Odom
