--- Comment #1 from Bob Bishop <rb at gid.co.uk> ---
BSD sed behaves as documented. Per re_format(7): "Obsolete (``basic'') regular
expressions differ in several    respects.  `|' is an ordinary character and
there       is no equivalent for its functionality."

Rewrite the RE as follows to achieve the desired outcome:

echo "__adddsf3" | sed 's/\(.*\)\([sd]f\)/\1 \2/'
__addd sf3
