Doesn't file CaseFolding.txt contain all the info needed?
If so, what about populating the case tables from the latest CaseFolding.txt
file at Emacs build time? Or if no Internet access during build, populate from
a copy of the file to be distributed with Emacs.
And provide the same population code as a Lisp function, in case someone wants
to refresh an old Emacs release to use a more recent CaseFolding.txt file.
Would this make any sense?
