ah, ic...

Personally I think the default dejavu sans mono hyphen looks kind crappy
in comments and strings too, so a global replace would be fine, but I
suppose ymmv...

[I'd go so far as to call it a bug in dejavu sans mono -- a monospaced
font shouldn't have such a dinky hyphen.  I guess they probably just
copied it from dejavu sans.  Hmm, maybe I oughta file a bug report...]
