I am trying to get there, and the ctype methods patch is a step in that
direction, but I don't think we will have full the full multi-library-
versions work in v18.

A compile-time option does have a chance for v18, and if that satisfies
the immediate concerns of packagers, then we can still update Unicode
in the default build.
