[Mono-dev] [PATCHES] Bug 480178 - System.Globalization.CharUnicodeInfo.GetUnicodeCategory() does not handle surrogate characters appropriately.

[Atsushi Eno]

Also, this patch (for string normalization) has nothing to do with 
string collation, which is very windows-specific and has nothing to do 
with unicode standards. .NET's string collation has (hence) nothing to 
do with Char.GetUnicodeCategory() either.

It is getting obsoleted and turned off by default in .NET 4 anyways.
