Further to the above, I found the Unicode sources, have rebuilt the files, but it involved some fairly serious hacking to the building mechanism and I have had to disable the Unicode 3.2 support. And, of course, that means that 4 of the tests fail.
This area needs addressing, not least because Python should clearly be upgraded to Unicode 5.0.0 (which is what I am using) at some stage. I am not sure how best to report a bug that essentially says "The build mechanisms for Unicode have suffered bit-rot, no longer work and need redesigning." I could certainly do that, but it's not helpful - people already know that, from the comments :-( Regards, Nick Maclaren, University of Cambridge Computing Service, New Museums Site, Pembroke Street, Cambridge CB2 3QH, England.
