The crash was in mbrtowc and seems to be a haiku issue and be unrelated to the age of the sed code (this code works on lots of systems).  So, I've just created a ASCII mbrtowc implementation in sed.c to work around this.

Great! now that the kBuild integration is done, I can look into 
integrating the Haiku additions into the sources.

Alexander, could you please point me to the latest diff you have?

http://pub.haikufire.com/haiku/optionalpackages/ does not resolve here 
and I suspect those are only the binaries anyway.

I located a git-hub repository https://github.com/scgtrp/vbox-haiku but 
I ran into certicates issue over http proxy when I clone the repository 
in the Haiku VM.

One of François' links: 
http://revolf.free.fr/beos/patches/virtualbox-haiku-port-004.diff seems 
to include partial host support and OS-type changes which I won't be 
integrating.


Could you please attach or post a link to the latest diff. you have, it 
would be very helpful.

Also; is there any specific version of Haiku I should be using in order 
to get these built? I'm currently on 42717 (GCC4).

Regards,
Ram.
