Yikes.  This looks like the AIX sed implementation chokes on our
setting of $global_symbol_pipe.  You can confirm that by trying GNU
sed, which ought to process the sed script properly.  The difficult
bit is then to find a functionally equivalent sed script which works
with AIX sed...

Cheers,
        Gary.
