Public bug reported:
Compare
$ sed 's/c*$/x/g' <<<abc
abx
$ s2p 's/c*$/x/g' | perl - <(echo abc)
abxx
$
sed's behaviour is correct for sed. The Perl that s2p(1) produces
doesn't do the equivalent substitution, instead matching zero c's and
the end of the string after the first substitution of c by x.
