OK, i recognise you posted current@, but here:
	uname -r
	6.2-RELEASE
	echo 'ABC'|sed 's/a/z/'
	ABC

Maybe you have an env. var. such as EXINIT or some ~/.* or /etc/*
initialiser file that's doing the equivalent of 	vi 	:se ic	?
I know you'r talking sed, not vi,
but man vi FILES gives hints of places to look for similar thing such as eg
	/etc/vi.exrc
	$HOME/.nexrc
	$HOME/.exrc
	`pwd`/.nexrc
	`pwd`/.exrc
