Remove Autotools sed hack (#3848)
configure.ac contains a sed line that cleans up incorrect library
flags which was added to paper over some bugs in earlier versions
of the Autotools. These issues are not a problem with the current
versions of the Autootols.
The sed line causes problems on MacOS, so it has been removed.
Fixes #3843
