Right, my orignal patch to fix this did LANG=C before the sed. Alexandre
changed this to LC_ALL=C recently, probably to get C sorting order as well.

When I use your settings I can't reproduce what you get (I have sed 4.0.8
on Fedora Core 2 test 1). What does it say when you do this:

$ LANG=C sed -e '1,2d' -e 's/\(.*\)/  \"\1\",/' ../../AUTHORS | grep Ove
