With GNU sed, the r command doesn't care if a space separates it and
the filename it reads from.

With SunOS sed, the space is required.

MacOS and the various BSD's ship with BSD 'sed', not GNU 'sed', so it
seemed prudent to check this change against them as well, which I did,
and can report that it does not cause any regression on those
platforms.

Therefore, the patch looks good. Thanks.

Thanks for checking on that, Eric. I tested MacOS locally before submitting as well. From a quick skim of the POSIX sed page, the space is expected, so this should be portable.
