Summary:                    make uclibc-config fails, as sed does not exist.
Description: 
I am getting the following failure from a fresh checkout of buildroot:

<yada yada>
/home/mjd/wrk/buildroot-sym-1/toolchain_build_arm/bin/sed -i -e
's,^CROSS_COMPILER_PREFIX=.*,CROSS_COMPILER_PREFIX="/home/mjd/wrk/buildroot-sym-1/build_arm/staging_dir/usr/bin/arm-linux-uclibc-",g'
\
                -e 's,# TARGET_arm is not set,TARGET_arm=y,g' \
                -e 's,^TARGET_ARCH=".*",TARGET_ARCH=\"arm\",g' \

make: /home/mjd/wrk/buildroot-sym-1/toolchain_build_arm/bin/sed: Command
not found

How to reproduce:

tar -xjf ../dl/buildroot-svn-snapshot.tar.bz2
cd buildroot
cp target/device/Atmel/at91sam9260dfc/at91sam9260dfc_defconfig .config
make menuconfig
# Immediately exit and save without changing any values
make uclibc-config

The above patch to buildroot fixes the problem for me.

Is this patch allways correct? The rule seems a bit weird for me, I would
assume something like sed-host-installed or something similar.

Does Buildroot build sed if the host is missing it?

this is not correct, no. Works in my tree..
