Summary:                    sed output incorrect in substitution
Description: 
Running the recently patched sed given the following input (3 lines):
 6f 0e fc c6 dd c6 23 af 76 5a 1f e6 6f 34 e2 a3
 47 ff 17 ba 8c f7 7e d1 61 00 00


and the following command:
sed -e 's/ *$//g' -e 's/ \(..\)/\\x\1/g' -e 's/^\(.*\)$/"\1"/'

Resulting output:
"\x6f\x0e\xfc\xc6\xdd\xc6\x23\xaf\x76\x5a\x1f\xe6\x6f\x34\xe2\xa3"
"\x47\xff\x17\xba\x8c\xf7\x7e\xd1\x61\x00\x00\x  \x  \x  \x  \x  "
""

When run on a linux box, the resulting output is:
"\x6f\x0e\xfc\xc6\xdd\xc6\x23\xaf\x76\x5a\x1f\xe6\x6f\x34\xe2\xa3"
"\x47\xff\x17\xba\x8c\xf7\x7e\xd1\x61\x00\x00"
""

Adding an additional "-e 's/\\x  //g'" does not remove it from the output
either.  Only piping it to a new sed command will remove the excess "\x  "
from the end.

OK... it executes the commands given in reverse order instead of the order
given on the command line.
