Two problems lie in ${EDELIB_WRKSRC}/sslib/gen-c-string.sh sed usage:

- \s is a GNU extension, this is trivially replaced with [[:space:]], HOWEVER:
- The next expression uses \t and expects a tab, but this will not happen with
our sed.

\s is caught by bug #229925 that forbids escaping ordinary characters that have
no extra meaning to lessen the stress of later adding special behavior to some
of these escape sequences. \t, however, will just silently do the wrong thing.

Switch this over to gsed for now; a pass will be done later to check out every
port with BUILD_DEPENDS containing gsed to evaluate whether we're ready for
them to use base sed or not.
