Clearly, mainstreaming ICU is the way to go. libc support will always have niche uses, to be compatible with other software on the box, but trusting strxfrm doesn't seem to be on the cards any time soon.
[RMT hat, personal opinion on RMT]To be clear, is the proposal to remove both "check_strxfrm_bug" and "TRUST_STRXFRM"?
Given a bunch of folks who have expertise in this area of code all agree with removing the above as part of the collation cleanups targeted for v16, I'm inclined to agree. I don't really see the need for an explicit RMT action, but based on the consensus this seems OK to add as an open item.
