I don't mind either way, but while Win32 will work with Magnus' patch,
FreeBSD won't; it needs the ICU patch to work. OTH, I maintain the
FreeBSD  port where I already have the patch as an ("experiemental")
option. Not  every FreeBSD user uses the ports system, though.

So, it is a question whether FreeBSD's unicode support is important or
not,  I guess? Win32 will work both ways.

How is FreeBSD's Unicode support broken?  I was not aware of that.

FreeBSD has no unicode collation support. Hence the need for ICU.
