Representing TAB as `\t` in the sed replacement is not necessarily
portable and (as far as I can see) we don't rely upon that in any
existing tests. It probably would be safer to employ a literal TAB
character in `s/X/ /g` as Junio showed in his example[1].
Hmm, I actually saw using a literal HT character as a disadvantage.
Thanks for the notice, I'll send the v5 with this fixed.
