Description Pablo Saratxaga 2007-01-18 12:27:31 UTC 
The UTF-8 charset definition and the i18n locale data (which
has the default LC_CTYPE definitions used by almost all locales,
for toupper, tolower, isalpha, etc) are quite outdated, using
unicode 3.2 data. (there are 3,868 new characters between
unicode 3.2 and unicode 5.0)

Attached is a patch for UTF-8 and an updated i18n file
(as a patch for that one is bigger than the file itself)
