Thanks, but these both look like false positives to me.
Among other things, -1+12 does not equal -20.  I suspect it's
a bug in Parfait.  Perhaps it's just a problem in how its information
is displayed, in which case it could be identifying a bug in sed,
but offhand I don't see what that bug would be.
