Sorry for interrupting, but NF_K_C? You don't want that (K for
compatibility, rather than canonical, normalization) for anything except
normalizing temporary variables inside strcasecmp(3) or similar. Probably
not even that. The normalizations done are often irreversible and also
surprising. You don't want to turn 2³.c into 23.c, do you?
