Commit 4d8b1dc850 added a couple of tests to t7004, and my testing reveals
that this one has been broken on Leopard since then:

* FAIL 83: message in editor has initial comment
GIT_EDITOR=cat git tag -a initial-comment > actual || true &&
test $(sed -n "/^\(#\|\$\)/p" actual | wc -l) -gt 0

I think this is our good old friend, MacOSX' sed.  (Wasn't there a 
question today what's wrong with using sed?  I think this issue 
qualifies.)

\| is not portable.  $ in groups is not portable.

I imagine that it is that MacOSX' sed is adding a trailing newline (not 
the regexp like you suggested).

I imagine it is one of the above.  Most sed's add trailing newlines.
