I suspect your input file is in DOS format. This means that at the end of the line there are two characters: 'carriage return (CR)' and 'linefeed (LF)'. With your sed statement you are only replacing the LF by '***' plus a new LF. so your sentence becomes:
Code:
Fred Fardbarkle:674-843-1385:20 Parak Lane, Duluth, MN 23850:4/12/23:780CR***LF

Which get printed as:
Code:
***d Fardbarkle:674-843-1385:20 Parak Lane, Duluth, MN 23850:4/12/23:780900

This is why
Code:
sed '/^Fred/s/.$/***/' inputfile

does indeed work because then you delete the CR (the "." takes care of it) , so your sentence becomes:
Code:
Fred Fardbarkle:674-843-1385:20 Parak Lane, Duluth, MN 23850:4/12/23:780***LF

So I think you should convert the file to unix format first and then the original sed statement should work.

__gnu_parallel::_restrictedboundedconcurrentqueue

__gnu_parallel::_RestrictedBoundedConcurrentQueue< _Tp >(3)  Library Functions Manual  __gnu_parallel::_RestrictedBoundedConcurrentQueue< _Tp >(3)

NAME

       __gnu_parallel::_RestrictedBoundedConcurrentQueue< _Tp > -

SYNOPSIS

   Public Member Functions
       _RestrictedBoundedConcurrentQueue (_SequenceIndex __max_size)
       ~_RestrictedBoundedConcurrentQueue ()
       bool pop_back (_Tp &__t)
       bool pop_front (_Tp &__t)
       void push_front (const _Tp &__t)

Detailed Description
   template<typename _Tp>class __gnu_parallel::_RestrictedBoundedConcurrentQueue< _Tp >
       Double-ended queue of bounded size, allowing lock-free atomic access. push_front() and pop_front() must not be called concurrently to each
       other, while pop_back() can be called concurrently at all times. empty(), size(), and top() are intentionally not provided. Calling them
       would not make sense in a concurrent setting.

       Parameters:
	   _Tp Contained element type.

       Definition at line 52 of file queue.h.

Constructor &; Destructor Documentation
   template<typename _Tp> __gnu_parallel::_RestrictedBoundedConcurrentQueue< _Tp >::_RestrictedBoundedConcurrentQueue (_SequenceIndex__max_size)
       [inline]
       Constructor. Not to be called concurrent, of course.

       Parameters:
	   __max_size Maximal number of elements to be contained.
