gyp build fails around FreeBSD

[GoogleCodeExporter]

version: gyp-r832
target file: gyp/generator/make.py
category: build fail
OS: FreeBSD 9-CURRENT

Background:
    Right now FreeBSD getting change of system default sed and grep.
  Legacy FreeBSD uses GNU sed and GNU grep as their system default
  commands. But now, they are developing BSD sed and BSD grep, and
  unfortunately, some feature is not in their implementation.
  FreeBSD 9-CURRENT use BSD sed and grep.

Issues and suggestions:
  gyp uses GNU sed and GNU grep in their scripts (or it looks like so).
  And that script it not compatible with BSD sed and grep. There is 2 ways
  to fix that.

  1) Change sed and grep pattern to get for both GNU and BSD.
  2) Change command name and path of sed and grep on FreeBSD.
    sed --> gsed
    grep --> /usr/local/bin/grep
       (there is a little confusion. /usr/bin/grep is BSD grep and
       /usr/local/bin/grep is GNU grep.)

Thanks
