It seems that some implementations of tr don't like a
replacement string of '-----...'; they try to find the
double-dash option "---...".
Instead of this pipeline of tr and sed invocations, just use a
single perl invocation.

I didn't see any complaints about increasing the use of perl in earlier
patches, so hopefully nobody minds. I think this is more portable, more
readable, and probably more efficient.
