Thank you for the report.
I'll look into it soon.
But before that:
Downstream Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=604798
sed-4.3 contained a bug which could lead to segfault,
and we've released sed-4.4 shortly after.
If you are involved in packaging sed for gentoo,
I highly recommend to upgrade.
Please see more details in a similar bugreport
we've submitted for debian:
