To be clear: do you mean it fixes it *for the characters in the Unicode 
version supported by these updated collation data*?  Or globally for all 
characters including those not yet defined or too new for that collation 
data?

In the various cases where collation data has been changed locally since 
the previous import from ISO 14651, are those local changes all obsoleted 
by subsequent changes to the ISO 14651 collation data?
