Comment(by russ.bubley@…):

 I encounterd this problem too. For me (on Tiger)
 {{{
 #!sh
 machine:~/bin user$ which sed gsed
 /usr/bin/sed
 /opt/local/bin/gsed
 machine:~/bin user$ echo "ab\303\251cd" | LC_ALL=C sed -e 's/.*//'

 machine:~/bin user$  echo "ab\303\251cd" | LC_ALL=C gsed -e 's/.*//'
 écd
 }}}
