Unfortunately, this script is not functional: the characters managed by
“parse_cldr_latin_ascii_transliterator” are absent from output. It is
probably a compatibility problem with the regex (the two versions of the
language are not compatible, it is not always possible to write a code
that works with both).

After the various feedbacks, and since: the PostgreSQL source uses only
Python 2, the end of support for this version will not happen soon, and
mostly this script must be run very rarely (only when the Unicode
Standard is updated, or transliterator, it is not part of the build
process), the easiest way seems to be to have a single Python 2 script.

So, you will find attached a new patch, it’s the same script, compatible
with Python 2, *with only ASCII characters*.
