Did look further into this problem. When I increase the number of lines from
48 to 976 (the number of substitutions, so only one subs file results), the
config.status file ends correctly.
If the number is 48, the resulting command is
"
 sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-1.sed | sed -f
./confstat1556-17647/subs-2.sed | sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-3.sed |
sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-4.sed | sed -f
./confstat1556-17647/subs-5.sed | sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-6.sed |
sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-7.sed | sed -f
./confstat1556-17647/subs-8.sed | sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-9.sed |
sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-10.sed | sed -f
./confstat1556-17647/subs-11.sed | sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-12.sed |
sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-13.sed | sed -f
./confstat1556-17647/subs-14.sed | sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-15.sed |
sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-16.sed | sed -f
./confstat1556-17647/subs-17.sed | sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-18.sed |
sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-19.sed | sed -f
./confstat1556-17647/subs-20.sed | sed -f ./confstat1556-17647/subs-21.sed
"
This results in a lot of sed commands executed parallel. Was this meant to
happen?

Hope this helps a bit
