It hasn't been that long since I re-bootstrapped. Probably 2 years. But 
as I look at the repo, it shows /usr/bin/sed for TOOLS_PLATFORM:

$ grep sed tools.Darwin.mk
TOOLS_PLATFORM.sed?=            /usr/bin/sed

"bootstrap" does say "need_sed", and it does install "nbsed" (unless 
something else depended it in), but I guess at runtime pkgsrc is looking 
at the tools configuration.

I'm happy keeping it in mk.conf for now, but if "nbsed" is reliably 
installed at bootstrap-time then we should probably have the tools use it.

Thanks!
