Bug Description
On CentOS 5.4 with "GNU sed version 4.1.5" the "--follow-symlink" option is not supported.
It has been added to fix bug 954031.
We could add a test for sed, but that would remove the fix on those systems.
Another solution would be to use "$BYOBU_READLINK -f" to resolve the filename used with "sed".

I'll test for the feature, and just not add it if its not available. That does mean that CentOS 5.4 systems will be vulnerable to bug #954031. Not much more I can do about ancient versions of tools like sed. Sorry. Thanks for the bug report!
