I looked a little more and ran "misspellings" on all of sed's
version-controlled files. It reported these:

testsuite/8to7.sh:49: preceeded -> "preceded"
testsuite/BOOST.tests:96: repetion -> "repetition"
testsuite/misc.pl:109: addres -> "adders","address"
testsuite/posix-mode-bad-ref.sh:31: referencs -> "references"
testsuite/runptests.c:84: suceeds -> "succeeds"
testsuite/runtests.c:82: successfull -> "successful"
testsuite/tst-pcre.c:188: preceeding -> "preceding"
testsuite/uniq.good:310: UPTO -> "Up to"
testsuite/uniq.inp:813: UPTO -> "Up to"
testsuite/utf8-ru.sh:90: expeced -> "expected"
testsuite/utf8-ru.sh:114: expeced -> "expected"
