sed and configure scripts

I must be doing something wrong here. Basicly, it seems like sed would
always intepret its input as binary.

I'm trying to run zsh-3.1.6 configure script. All is fine until configure
does something like

cat > c.sed << EOF
s/ristiina/parkano/g
s/oulu/turku/g
EOF
sed -n -f c.sed < naantali > hollola

Now, c.sed contains dos newlines (0x0d), and sed barfs:

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

(option 'g^M'...)

my mounts are textmode, but the situation did not change with binary
either. The configure script (the cat > ... and the following lines in
particular) has no ^M's. CYGWIN=binmode is _not_ set.

cygwin1.ddl snapshot 15052000, newest sed from net.

I understand somebody (Earnie?) already compiled zsh? Is there anything
else to watch out? s/__CYGWIN/__CYGWIN__/, but where?

Hmm. I wish the Amol Deshpande's native zsh would work 'right' with
cygwin. Not only, because I can't seem to compile zsh, but the native
zsh has some neat features...
