This has caused me problems as well, and it looks like my changes were 
included in an unrelated commit at 
http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/changeset/4366 (shameful).

The issue with the cp is that it requires a 'make install' before 'make 
check' will work.  The sed command was using the wrong library name.

It actually looks like my change is causing the problem for you, not 
fixing it; my error was:

   psql:postgis.sql:53: ERROR:  could not access file 
"/usr/local/src/postgis-trunk/regress/../postgis/libpostgis-1.5": No 
such file or directory

Seems like we're generating different library names.  I'm going to back 
out that change, since it shouldn't have gone in then anyway.
