Since you care enough to tell us about it, why not tell us what
problems this was trying to address ?

Thanks David.  I think hardcore Unicode addicts will disagree.

Pretty much.

Unless it is decided that we need yet-another-bugfix-release, in
which case 21.4 will be that bugfix-only release and only 21.5
will come with the good stuff.

In any case the good stuff is not about to be released, so you'll
have to use the CVS repository if you want to use it.
