I've reported that 'tr' behaves abnormally, that's about all I can do.
If you guys want to be edgelords and ship a broken 'tr' in the name of
saving 500 bytes, then that's your prerogative.
'tr' is a standard system utility, I wasn't expecting such pushback
against making it behave as every other modern implementation does.
If there's somebody here on the mailing list with commit access that
wants to do something about this, then I guess now is the time to have
your say.
