Paul,
Thank you for the quick fix.

Norihiro,
Thank you for the dfa improvements and sed-tests.

Using your example of:
   printf '0123456789abcd\nx\n' | valgrind ./sed/sed 'N;s/0123456789abcd\n//'
I wasn't able to trigger the segfault (or even a valgrind warning) on sed-4.3 / 
x86_64.

I suggest modifying the input just a bit, making it slightly more similar to 
the original bug report - with it I'm able to always reproduce the segfault:
   printf "abcdefg abcdefg\nB\n" | valgrind ./sed/sed 'N;s/abcdefg.*\n//'

What do you think ?

I'm also considering duplicating the test - once with and once without valgrind.
Is this warranted or an overkill ?

Attach patch contains updated tests (and slightly modified git-comment).
The second commit updates gnulib (comes after adding the tests just 
temporarily, to make testing before/after gnulib update easier).

comments welcomed,
 - assaf
