sed 4.2.2 does not operate on streams when --follow-symlinks is passed

sed 4.2.2 introduced the change from 4.2.1 that the
`--follow-symlinks` option breaks sed's ability to operate on
streams.

This option is clearly non-applicable in the situation of editing a
stream, but should not break in that situation.

This new behavior is an inconvenience to users who may have created
an alias for sed, as I have:
    alias sed='sed --follow-symlinks'

Problem testcase:
    $ type sed
    sed is aliased to `sed --follow-symlinks'
    $ sed s/foo/bar/ <<<foo
    /bin/sed: cannot stat -: No such file or directory

    $ /bin/sed --follow-symlinks s/foo/bar/ <<<foo
    /bin/sed: cannot stat -: No such file or directory

Work-around 0:
    $ /bin/sed s/foo/bar/ <<<foo
    bar

Work-around 1:
    $ unalias sed
    $ sed s/foo/bar/ <<<foo
    bar
