Not sure exactly what the differences are, but in sparc sed, the \+ did not 
do what we want it to do.

Are there any side effects, such as:

struct fmt_main XXX=
{
}

or something like that, causing issues?  In the above, there is no space 
between name and =, and nothing after the = char.   I am not sure how sed 
will handle this one, in the way we have it.

The one thing we have to keep in mind, is that if the fmt_*.h files are not 
built properly, then you get no warning what so ever.  Everything builds 
just fine.  Even on sparc, when the files were being built 0 bytes long, 
everything 'appeared' normal, until I ran john, and only the base formats 
were there.  Just an FYI to keep in mind, when producing the jumbo, to make 
sure everthing is there, and working.

Jim.
