[PATCH] D16548: Ignore LC_CTYPE in sed invocation on Darwin

Here, `sed` to prepare object files for comparison via `cmp`. On my Darwin 15.4.0 machine, LC_CTYPE is set to UTF-8 (by default, I believe). Under these circumstances, anything `sed` is made to read will be treated as UTF-8, prompting it to signal an error if it is not, like so:

% sed s/a/b/ <(head -n1 /dev/random) >/dev/null; echo $?           
sed: RE error: illegal byte sequence
1
% 

To make sed work as expected, I need to set LC_CTYPE to C:

% env LC_CTYPE=C sed s/a/b/ <(head -n1 /dev/random) >/dev/null; echo $?
0
%

Without this change, sed will exit with an error for every single file that it compares between phase 2 and phase 3, thereby making it look as if the differences were far larger than they are.
