Good idea, thanks.

but what am I doing wrong?

cd Documentation
sh ./00-INDEX.sh

The "undocumented" list looks correct (well, it could omit .orig files), but the "Documented but missing" list contains words, e.g.:

-
this
file.
-
info
on
kernel
<->
userspace
and
relative
interface
stability.
-
brute
force
method
of

on and on and on ...

The "undocumented" list looks correct (well, it could omit .orig files), but the "Documented but missing" list contains words, e.g.:

Looks like sed's not filtering out lines before '00-INDEX'; my reading of POSIX sed specification[1] would seem to confirm the filtering should work, see:
[2addr]d
Delete the pattern space and start the next cycle.

1. http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xcu/sed.html

Maybe some regex fun then; what if you remove the anchors (^ and $)?

And anyway, using sed --posix to disable all GNU extensions gives the expected output here (with GNU sed version 4.2.1).

What's your sed/system, so that I can check what's going on there, and how to deal with it?

Using 'grep -A $ABIGNUMBER' could be a workaround I guess, but a ugly one…

ad I don't see any environment variables that would affect grep either.

Anyway, using this line instead of any one of the lines above works for me:

documented=$(sed '1,/^00-INDEX$/d' 00-INDEX|grep -G -v ^[[:space:]]|sed 's:/$::')

i.e., use ^[[:space:]] instead of the (original) '^\s'.

Hm, I still can't reproduce your original issue, even with a Fedora 11 system; but anyway, using [[:space:]] looks good. In the upcoming patch I'm also dropping -G: It's the default for GNU grep, and it's not POSIX-documented[1] anyway.
