>Description:

Sed commands a,i,c are followed by lines of text, where newlines are
escaped. Currently only one line can follow. The second line is interpreted
like a new sed command.

>How-To-Repeat:

sed '1a\
hallo\
xxx
'

Output:
": extra characters at the end of x command

>Fix:
	
Remove revision 1.5 from compile.c
This was supposed to fix a bug in dealing with continuation lines
but somehow introduced this bug.
