This thread has me second-guessing the reply I just sent on the other
thread.
Is someone able to test out upper & lower functions on U+A7BA ... U+A7BF
across a few libs/versions? Theoretically the upper/lower behavior
should change in ICU between Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
(specifically in ICU 64 / Unicode 12). And I have no idea if or when
glibc might have picked up the new unicode characters.
