Sed problem...

Hi,
I downloaded and installed cygwin1.1.1, and
tried to generate a Makefile from a configuration file.
The command that i used is

bash configure.nt
(BTW, I am using windows NT 4.0 and bash 2.04 from the latest drop)

While processing the command, bash generated the following
error messages.

sed: file conftest.defs line 1: Unknown option to 's'

The content of conftest.defs looks like

s/#define \([A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*\) *\(.*\)/-D\1=\2/g
s/[     `~#$^&*(){}\\|;'"<>?]/\\&/g
s/\[/\\&/g
s/\]/\\&/g
s/\$/$$/g

The confusing thing is when I passed the scripts directly from
the command line, it worked.

Also, the same process worked with bash 2.02 which comes with
cygwin-b20.

any help???

thanks
