Hi Ludovic,

Thanks for the feedback!

Done.

I agree -- I did think it was weird that (char-title-case?
(char-titlecase x)) could sometimes return #f.  Done.

Done.

Actually, I'm going to hold off on this, since documenting this would
require at least some explanation of scm_t_wchar, which seems to me to
be outside the scope of this patch.  I'm happy to add documentation
for this (as well as the other wchar functions), although some context
from the originator of that typedef (`git blame' says it was Mike
Gran) would be useful.

Done, although I actually used "D" plus U+017E instead of U+01F1,
since Emacs doesn't seem to handle digraphs very well.

Done, pushed.


Thanks,
