Yes, a unfortunate Unicode minus sign that has been corrected to ASCII minus 
sign. Definitely a fix that also applies to PROJ 5. Anyway that only affects 
people playing manually with +init=ITRF2005, which I suspect are only happy 
fews.

Just want to warn in advance that a potential future PROJ 7 that would use 
grids in GeoTIFF format instead of GTX/NTv2 is something likely, and you will 
*not* want PROJ 5 to use such grids... But at that time, QGIS 3.4 will be 
retired hopefully.
