Why are there such differences between branches? Sed is a purely user-space
program and depends neither on anything unusual in the kernel, nor on any
libraries, that may only be present in newer releases.

I'd say, the version in 11 and 12 should be the same. There may be an argument
for staying conservative with 10, but, as long as all the tests pass, maybe
even that should be no different.

Maybe, the triggered test should be added to our suit?
