Unlike many of its other man pages Sun's sed man page doesn't claim
conformance with any standards. I'm pretty sure it predates all these
fancy-schmancy standards documents.

The sed man page references XPG4 for, presumably, /usr/xpg4/bin/sed.
man XPG4 says Solaris 7-9 support SUSv2 (POSIX.1b-1993 and
POSIX.1c-1996) while Solaris 10 supports SUSv3 (POSIX.1-2001). This
should happen automatically if your environment has the setting
CONFIG_SHELL=/usr/xpg4/bin/sh as described in the PROBLEMS file.
