Hi Arnold.  Thanks for reporting :)

    Hi.  When I clone the sed repo and run ./bootstrap, it brings in a version
    of gnulib that is not the head of the gnulib master.

Yep.  The sed repo has a git submodule in gnulib/.  This means that when
you clone the sed repository and init/update the gnulib submodule (via
the bootstrap script) you get a concrete commit of gnulib, not the head.

    As a result, Range Interpretation isn't rational (even with LC_ALL=C !!!).
    
    What's the right way to move to a later gnulib?  Can someone do that?

I will update the submodule reference (i.e. to pull upstream changes to
the submodule) after making sure that all the tests still pass.
