Dwight,
I can reproduce your problem using sed 4.0.1, assuming sed actually gets
some input (if there's no input on standard input, the diagnostic does not
occur). Changing the pattern separators does not cure the problem.
Replicating the address range pattern ("<.BLOCKQUOTE>") in the empty
substitute target pattern does not help.
I'm not a total SED junkie, so maybe there's something I'm overlooking
here, but it does appear to me to be a bug.

Attached is the correct one--that is, the one that creates the fuss--,
with the (obviously) missing RE.
Sorry to waste your time on that--I had been doing a lot of testing and
forgot I fiddled with the script.
Thanks,
