For this item:
Create a "builtin" collation provider similar to libc's C
locale (Jeff Davis)
It uses a "C" locale which is identical but independent of
libc, but it allows the use of non-"C" collations like "en_US"
and "C.UTF-8" with the "C" locale, which libc does not. MORE?
I suggest something more like:
New, platform-independent "builtin" collation
provider. (Jeff Davis)
Currently, it offers the "C" and "C.UTF-8" locales. The
"C.UTF-8" locale combines stable and fast code point order
collation with Unicode character semantics.
Regards,
Jeff Davis
