There was also a different change to ld-collate.c on 2000-08-27, not
by me.
What I'm observing now is that the LD_COLLATE file for an UTF-8 locale
has gone down from 880 KB to 310 KB, and that the size of some tables
inside this file sometimes change when the file is regenerated, even
though the locale source file itself remained unchanged.
To me it looks like a bug somewhere in ld-collate. It'd be good if
someone could apply bounds-checking or similar debugging tools to it.
