octave-devel @3.6.4_9 "sed: RE error: illegal byte sequence" on 10.8

Description

I'm on OS X 10.8.5. While building octave-devel I ran into the "sed: RE error: illegal byte sequence" error while creating scripts/help/PKG_ADD-t, which caused the build phase to fail. Sorry I don't have the log file handy.

There's already ​a section in octave-devel's `Portfile` to set LANG=C. The comment says that it's for "10.8+" but the test there is if {${os.major} > 12}. Should that be >= 12 instead of > 12? I made that change locally and then I was able to successfully install octave-devel.

Thanks!

Yes. This was caused by r112810.
