[PATCH] config, aarch64: Use a more compatible sed invocation.

[PATCH] config, aarch64: Use a more compatible sed invocation.

[Iain Sandoe]

Although this came up initially when working on the Darwin Arm64
port, it also breaks cross-compilers on platforms with non-GNU sed.

Tested on x86_64-darwin X aarch64-linux-gnu, aarch64-darwin,
aarch64-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu.  OK for master?
thanks,
Iain

Currently, the sed command used to parse --with-{cpu,tune,arch} are
using GNU-specific extension to the -e (recognising extended regex).

This is failing on Darwin, which defaults to Posix behaviour for -e.
However '-E' is accepted to indicate an extended RE.  Strictly, this
is also not really sufficient, since we should only require a Posix
sed (but it seems supported for BSD-derivatives).

gcc/ChangeLog:

	* config.gcc: Use -E to to sed to indicate that we are using
	extended REs.

The man pages I have for linux, freebsd and macos all show something 
pretty similar:

   -e script
               add the script to the commands to be executed

Wording varies slightly, but I think the meaning is clearly the same. 
So this really has nothing to do with extended regexps.

That means, I think, that we really want '-E -e <script>' if we need to 
handle extended regexps here.

If that works for Darwin, then please commit with that change.

R.
