These scripts produce errors when run on FreeBSD (in the context of logstash). Adding the double dash prevents interpretation of the left operand as an option to expr itself. See also https://discuss.elastic.co/t/cannot-install-multiline-filter-on-freebsd-11/106929?source_topic_id=117201.

In particular, the culprit in the logstash issue was line

if expr "$val" : '.*[.]' > /dev/null; then
expanding to "expr -C : .[.*]".

Thanks.

@arjanvandervelde our 9.1.x is on the branch jruby-9.1 but that is far from obvious so I will just cherry-pick this over there.

This fix appears to cause issues on Alpine Linux due to some incompatibility with the expr command. See #5091.

In #5013 we modified our bash script to use -- when calling the
`expr` command, but this form is not supported on Alpine Linux's
version of expr. This patch tests the behavior of `expr --` to
determine which form to use.
