Although it doesnt (the previous) completely hold as of Mysql 3.23.32-1,
the problem is much worse:
the set {0xD3,0xD4) (greek S and T) are considered the same char by the =
comparison.
the set {0xEC, 0xED, 0xEE} (greek Mi, Ni, Ksi) of chars are also considered
equivalent in comparison.
I am really surprised!!
Are the developers aware of the problenatic behaviour for greek lang??
