Comment (by dfeuer):

 Replying to [comment:7 rwbarton]:
 > Er, we should probably have some guidelines written down about what is
 suitable for merging to a maintenance branch, but I ''really'' don't think
 this qualifies.

 I'm reminded of the prayer books my synagogue uses for Rosh Hashanah and
 Yom Kippur—the holiday date charts in the back were reprinted verbatim
 from an earlier edition, so they include the dates for the holidays many
 years ago, but ran out just a few years after the second printing. I
 personally consider such things as Unicode table update to be part of
 regular maintenance, rather than new features.

 Note: if we ''do'' decide to merge to 7.8.4, the tables will have to be
 generated for that, not copied over from 7.9.
