Doesn't this patch add a dependency on "sed" that requires AC_PROG_SED to run before this macro?

m4/ax_compiler_flags_cflags.m4 and m4/ax_compiler_flags_cxxflags.m4 uses ${flag:5}, which is not supported by POSIX and some shells, including dash and ash. We should not depend on non-portable shell features in configure scripts.
