Why have two names for the same function? it's Python 3, after all. Or is this "no recompile" feature so important (as long as changes are clearly shown to the user)?

OK, here is a new patch. Even if this does not happen with unicodedata up to 5.1, the table has only 175 entries so memory usage is not dramatically increased.
