Is it possible to rewrite that section so the calls to ordinary standard AC_PROG_SED-certified sed will suffice - by perhapse simplifying the sed expressions? Or if we depend on other things like awk/perl, use one of them?

Maybe it would be better, instead of trying to work around libtool and AC_PROG_SED, which could easily break in the future. Just have a completely separate macro that searches for GNU sed, then in the few cases in the source code where we specifically need GNU sed, then we uses a different variable like GSED to access it instead of plain sed.
My guess is that the normal sed should work fine for all the autoconf stuff, that is what AC_PROG_SED should be checking. We just need GNU sed for the template processing?
