The Perl distribution's files are encoded in various encodings. The vast majority are UTF-8; only a couple are ISO8859-1. Thus your solution is wrong for most of the distribution. UTF-8 is the same as ISO8859-1 for the ASCII range, and most .c and .h file code uses ASCII except for the occasional comment. But I think there was a real bug or two from doing a naive translation like this is. Some files are in Latin2; some in East Asian encodings; some are binary
So I was and still am curious as to how Rocket solves this.
