I applied both v2 patches and tested them on macOS 15 (aarch64,
clang 21), built with meson and --enable-cassert. Reporting results in
case an independent check on a non-Linux platform is useful.
Full test suite passes: 360 tests OK, 0 failures. The 40 skips are all
PG_TEST_EXTRA opt-ins (ssl, ldap, oauth, load_balance,
libpq_encryption, xid_wraparound). I ran saslprep separately with
PG_TEST_EXTRA=saslprep and it passes as well.
To exercise the changed path specifically, I used a database with
LOCALE_PROVIDER builtin / BUILTIN_LOCALE 'PG_UNICODE_FAST' and checked
the expanding case mappings:
upper('ß') -> 'SS' (2 codepoints)
upper('ffl') -> 'FFL' (3 codepoints)
upper('ΐ') -> 3 codepoints
upper('ῷ') -> 3 codepoints
casefold('ß') -> 'ss'
and drove ltree_crc32_sz() via ltree tables with GiST and btree indexes
over 1000 rows. No assertion failures from the new
Assert(foldlen < sizeof(foldstr)).
