Equally GNU sed is available as a drop-in rpm for AIX. I wonder if it
would be worth adding
Makefile support for a PATH prefix for the git scripts, so they could
prepend (in this case)
something like /opt/freeware/bin or /usr/linux/bin ?

In our AIX environment many GNU tools are installed but I can't
guarantee they come first
in the paths of the git users.

I'm willing to work up a patch if there's any interest.
