GNU Unicode string library

Edit Package libunistring

This portable C library implements Unicode string types in three flavours:
(UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32), together with functions for character processing
(names, classifications, properties) and functions for string processing
(iteration, formatted output, width, word breaks, line breaks, normalization,
case folding and regular expressions).

The "gnulib" package contains a number of floating-point test cases
that do not work correctly with the PowerPC long double ("double double")
format.  These tests "accidentally" succeeded anyway in the big-endian
variant, but are now actually failing in little-endian mode.

As is usual for gnulib, those tests end up copied into the source code
of various packages that use gnulib, including coreutils, findutils,
grep, and libunistring.

A patch to fix the tests for ppc64le has been submitted to upstream
to the bug-gnulib mailing list.  We'll work with upstream of the
other affected packages to make sure the copies are refreshed.

- libunistring-gnulib-ppc64le.patch: Fix imported gnulib long double
  math tests for little-endian PowerPC. (forwarded request 211832 from uweigand)
