Subject: [PATCH] p5303: avoid sed GNU-ism
Using "1~5" isn't portable. Nobody seems to have noticed, since perhaps
people don't tend to run the perf suite on more exotic platforms. Still,
it's better to set a good example.
It's not just exotic platforms on which this can be a problem. BSD
lineage `sed`, such as stock `sed` on macOS, doesn't understand this
notation.
Thanks for eliminating this particular GNU-ism.
