Well, coreutils has a number of them:

Those file names end in ".x" so update-copyright will continue to use "-" on them. And they're tricky anyway, as their copyright notices are stripped before using.

If this turns into a real problem we could install something like the attached. It might be better to wait until we see the problem, though, since it's a tricky area.
