I committed it for now, but sed on coreboot.org doesn't seem to like the
sed script. It's about 30 seconds on my mingw install, I think. I'd
expect it to be slightly faster on Linux due to it being I/O bound (and
Windows doesn't cache and preload as aggressively as Linux).

Not sure if it really belongs in the commit hook - the problem is that
it blocks the commit, and already takes a while now. No need to make it
even slower.
