I agree it should be possible to regenerate that easily (or
perhaps entirely merge it into unicodedata/unicodectype).

andersch, how did you create the patch?

Rather than creating a patch for every new version, how
about extracting the relevant data from the Unicode database
using a script and putting that into Tools/unicode/ ?!

Note that the original version was also generated from the
database. Unfortunately, I can't find that script anymore.

One nit with the patch: it should put non-BMP Unicode code
points into #ifdef Py_UNICODE_WIDE ... #endif clauses.

The patch makes it match version 4.1.0. Though it didn't match
version 3.2.0 either.

Which version of the Unicode database is this based on?
