I don't think it is feasible to rework maybe_unify_char, and test that fix, and still have a reasonably timely 24.2 release. Let us consider outright reversion of 108048. What would be the effect? Given a choice between a bug (Bug#11519) which is also in 24.1, and failure-to-compile on OpenBSD as a new regression, the former is far preferable, unless you can point out some consequence that is more serious that the discussion in Bug#11519 implies. Also, if we revert 108048, should we revert 108020 (which is in 24.1) as well? Could you explain what problem 108020 causes which 108048 is supposed to fix? Does it have symptoms? Thanks.
