It would add a dependency on Perl, which is not great (I’m not sure whether it complicates bootstrapping since Perl is already present early on, but it’s safer to avoid it.) We could rewrite ‘unidata_to_charset.pl’ in Scheme, but then Guile would still need to provide a pre-compiled version of srfi-14.i.c for bootstrapping purposes. Or we could rewrite it in Awk, since Guile already depends on Awk anyway. Thoughts? Ludo’.
