Ok, can you extract them from libidn 0.4.0, or should I create a
patch? The patch would be ~2MB, so it is probably easier if you could
extract the files from
<http://josefsson.org/libidn/releases/libidn-0.4.0.tar.gz>.
You need lib/gen-stringprep-tables.pl, lib/gen-unicode-tables.pl, and
doc/specifications/*-3.2.0.txt and doc/specifications/rfc3454.txt.

Yes, I agree now. I'll make the same change in standalone libidn.
I think I'll keep CHARSET around for a while, because
nl_langinfo(CODESET) doesn't work on some platforms I'd like to
support. It doesn't make sense to have it in libc though.
(sys/param.h and MB_CUR_MAX are the remaining issues with toutf8.c I
have.)
Thanks,
Simon
