We are getting very close to moving over to the new tracker (hopefully
by the end of the month; no firm date yet, though, as we are still
planning things out)!
Part of the transition is taking a data dump provided by SourceForge
and loading it into our Roundup instance. But we need to make some

I tried that, of course. See below

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.
