Greetings again all,

Don't know how apropriate this is.

Docs state version of sed supported is Gnu sed 3.02.
The current sed command to generate shlib.lds will break
when used with gnu sed 3.02 (or non-gnu seds) due to
the intended newlines becoming literal 'n's .

Patch splits the seds out from Makerules into a new file,
avoiding the issue.

Another option is to just upgrade the docs to say Gnu sed 4.0.x
or greater must be used

Regards
Ryan
