Work around an apparent bug in the Msys DTK perl's regex engine.

Several versions of the perl that comes with the Msys DTK have been
found to have a bug that fails to recognize a ' before a multiline $ in
some circumstances. To work around the problem, use a character class
for the '. Another solution would have been to use \n instead of $, but
that would have changed the test semantics very slightly.
