With upstream master as of commit
bb6274ee1293a6bc76d9d7c889783303de181295, I see that make check in the
localedata subdirectory needs lots and lots of memory (several gigabytes).
Is this caused by the recent Unicode changes? I'm worried that we need
a smarter algorithm for computing the locales.
Thanks,
Florian
