Comment (by AgilentGCMS):

 Replying to [comment:7 ryandesign]:
 > For MacPorts operations like `reinplace`, it will use whatever `sed` it
 found when the MacPorts configure script was run. If
 /Users/sbasu1/packages/macports/sonoma/libexec/gnubin was in your `$PATH`
 when you ran ./configure for Sequoia, then that `sed`'s path is baked into
 your Sequoia MacPorts.

 > To avoid problems, it's best to set `$PATH` to just the standard
 directories before running `./configure` to install MacPorts. Or, better
 yet, use `./standard_configure.sh` instead which does that and more for
 you.

 Thanks for the explanation. Indeed, {{{sonoma}}} was in {{{$PATH}}} when I
 installed for {{{sequoia}}}, but I'm surprised that macports would bake in
 absolute paths in its innards instead of using whatever it found in
 {{{$PATH}}}. I've now manually edited {{{port_autoconf.tcl}}},
 {{{registry_autoconf.tcl}}}, and {{{macports_autoconf.tcl}}} to point to
 the same executables in the {{{sequoia}}} installation, and it seems to
 work. Did not know about `./standard_configure.sh`, I will have to
 remember that for the next release upgrade!
