As spotted by GNOME translation team, Greek language has the actually
visible difference between the abbreviated nominative and the abbreviated
genitive case for some month names. Examples:
May:
abbreviated nominative: "Μάι" -> abbreviated genitive: "Μαΐ"
July:
abbreviated nominative: "Ιούν" -> abbreviated genitive: "Ιουλ"
and more month names with similar differences.

* localedata/locales/el_CY (abmon): Rename to...
(ab_alt_mon): This.
(abmon): Import from CLDR (abbreviated genitive case).
* localedata/locales/el_GR (abmon): Rename to...
(ab_alt_mon): This.
(abmon): Import from CLDR (abbreviated genitive case).
A GNOME translator asked to use the same abbreviated month names
as provided by CLDR. This sounds reasonable. See the discussion:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=793645#c27
[BZ #22932]
* localedata/locales/lt_LT (abmon): Synchronize with CLDR.
Entries for characters which have “IGNORE” on all 4 levels like:
<U0001> IGNORE;IGNORE;IGNORE;IGNORE % START OF HEADING (in ISO 6429)
are changed into:
<U0001> IGNORE;IGNORE;IGNORE;<U0001> % START OF HEADING (in ISO 6429)
i.e. putting the code point of the character into the fourth level
instead of “IGNORE”. Without that change, all such characters
would compare equal which would make a wcscoll test case fail.
It is better to have a clearly defined sort order even for characters
like this so it is good to use the code point as a tie-break.
* localedata/locales/iso14651_t1_common: Use the code point of a
character in the fourth collation level instead of IGNORE for all
entries which have IGNORE on all 4 levels.
* localedata/locales/iso14651_t1_common: Add some convenient collation
symbols like <AFTER-A>, <BEFORE-A> to make tailoring easier using
rules similar to those in CLDR.
* localedata/locales/iso14651_t1_common: The new version of this
file downloaded from ISO contained several syntax errors which
are fixed by this patch.
[BZ #14095] - Review / update collation data from Unicode / ISO 14651
File downloaded from:
http://standards.iso.org/iso-iec/14651/ed-4/ISO14651_2016_TABLE1_en.txt
Updating this file alone is not enough, there are problems in the new
file which need to be fixed and the collation rules for many locales
need to be adapted. This is done by the following patches.
This update also fixes the problem that many characters are treated as
identical when sorting because they were not yet in the old
iso14651_t1_common file, see:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1336308
- Infinite (∞) and empty set (∅) are treated as if they were the same character by sort and uniq
[BZ #14095]
* localedata/locales/iso14651_t1_common: Update file to
latest version from ISO (ISO14651_2016_TABLE1_en.txt).
LC_TIME in these 4 locales is identical, using “copy "es_BO"” makes
that more obvious.
[BZ #22646]
* localedata/locales/es_CL (LC_TIME): copy "es_BO".
* localedata/locales/es_CU (LC_TIME): copy "es_BO".
* localedata/locales/es_EC (LC_TIME): copy "es_BO".
[BZ #10871]
* localedata/locales/ru_RU (mon): Rename to...
(alt_mon): This.
(abmon): Rename to...
(ab_alt_mon): This.
(mon): Import from CLDR (genitive case).
(abmon): Copy from the old content except the 5th month which is
now in the genitive case, even when abbreviated.
* localedata/locales/ru_UA: Likewise.
* time/tst-strptime.c (day_tests): Add an actual example of
a difference between %b and %Ob in Russian.
Primary month names are in a genitive case now, alternative month names
are in a nominative case.
The alternative digits hack is no longer needed and has been removed.
[BZ #10871]
* localedata/locales/uk_UA (mon): Renamed to...
(alt_mon): This.
(alt_digits): "0" removed and then renamed to...
(mon): This.

digits hack.
[BZ #10871]
* localedata/locales/pl_PL: Alternative month names added,
primary month names are genitive now.
* time/tst-strptime.c (day_tests): Actually use a genitive case
of a month name in Polish language.

The current date format prefixes one-digit days with a space, resulting

^^
The official orthography rules doesn't contain an explicit rule about
this (which already gives no sane reason for double space), and an
implicit example of "1848. március 9." under bullet point 296 at
http://helyesiras.mta.hu/helyesiras/default/akh12 contains a single
space only. It's sure not convincing on an HTML page, but I confirm
that the official book edition (e.g.
https://www.libri.hu/en/konyv/a-magyar-helyesiras-szabalyai-32.html)
also contains a single space there.
[BZ #22657]

[BZ #22527]
* localedata/locales/tr_TR (LC_COLLATE): Base collation rules
on iso14651_t1. A test file localedata/tr_TR.UTF-8.in is already
available, this rewrite of the collation rules does reproduce
the test file in the same order.
[BZ #10580]
* localedata/locales/hr_HR (LC_TIME): Use two letters for the
digraphs in the month and day names. Using single code points for
digraphs is deprecated. While there are dedicated Unicode
codepoints, for the digraphs, these are included for backwards
compatibility and modern texts use a sequence of Basic Latin
characters. See: https://www.unicode.org/faq/ligature_digraph.html
This makes the month and day names agree exactly with CLDR now,
CLDR does not use the single code points for the digraphs either.
According to CLDR, collation rules for Serbian and Bosnian
should be the same as for Croatian.

* localedata/Makefile: Add sr_RS.UTF-8 and bs_BA.UTF-8 to test-input

* localedata/locales/hr_HR (LC_MONETARY): Change currency_symbol to

Add int_p_cs_precedes and int_n_cs_precedes.
* localedata/locales/hr_HR (LC_NUMERIC): Change thousands_sep to
"<U202F>" (NARROW NO-BREAK SPACE) and grouping to 3;3 (Agrees with
LC_MONETARY now).
* localedata/locales/hr_HR (LC_TELEPHONE): Add tel_dom_fmt.
* localedata/locales/hr_HR (LC_NAME): Add name_mr, name_mrs, and
name_miss.
* localedata/locales/hr_HR (LC_ADDRESS): Add country_post, country_isbn,
and lang_lib. Change postal_fmt.

* Makefile: add fr_CA.UTF-8 to test-input and LOCALES.
* localedata/fr_CA.UTF-8.in: New file with test data for backward
accents sorting.
* localedata/fr_FR.UTF-8.in: Fix test data for forward accents

* localedata/locales/iso14651_t1_common: Use “ifdef DIACRIT_FORWARD”
instead of “ifdef DIACRIT_BACKWARD”.
The only locale which currently needs backward accents sorting is fr_CA.
Therefore, forward accents sorting should be the default.
Before this patch, backwards accent sorting was the default and all
locales except fr_CA had to use
define DIACRIT_FORWARD
before
copy "iso14651_t1"
Most locales didn’t do that and thus got the inappropriate backwards accents sorting
by accident. Now only the fr_CA locale needs to use
define DIACRIT_BACKWARD
before
copy "iso14651_t1"
