PATCH: bad sed expression

Yes.  I'm trying to run ../../../bogofilter/tests/t.systest.d/t.grftest -v
so $0 is set to "../../../bogofilter/tests/t.systest.d/t.grftest".
When this gets passed to sed, the first match to the RE "./t." is
"r/te", and thus "../../../bogofilter/tests/t.systest.d/t.grftest"
becomes "../../../bogofiltests/t.systest.d/t.grftest", which is a
non-existent path.  By making the RE "\./t\.", "./t.blah" will become
"blah", but "../../../bogofilter/tests/t.systest.d/t.grftest" will be
unchanged.  This is probably not a good idea either, so perhaps the RE
should be ".*/t\."

On the other hand, maybe all that branching is unnecessary and you could
use something like
