I think this is telling you that the new libc is incompatible with old
applications.  Installworld uses sed from ${INSTALLTMP}/sed.  It copies
sed from /usr/bin/sed at the start to (almost) ensure that only the old
version is used.  If perl actually uses /usr/bin/sed, then that is
another bug in perl, but since perl is installed before sed, this makes
no difference because /usr/bin/sed is still the old version.
