FWIW, libgcj does need this, since String and Character both have case
conversion methods.  This is mostly table-driven, using tables derived
from the Unicode tables via a converter program, but there are some
special cases in String for weird things like esset and dotless "i" in
the Turkish locale.  See libjava/scripts and
libjava/java/lang/{*String*,*Character*}.
