Yeah, I'm using that now. The half-meg character class table is not
related to width though, it's to to with selection classes (i.e what gets
selected when you doubleclick).

Obviously distributing this as-is, without any means of generating it from
UnicodeData.txt when e.g. new scripts are added is unsatisfactory. I'll
work on this.

BTW, the problems with the patch not applying cleanly should be fixed now.
