Ahh, no need now! :-) Their git diff wouldn't apply. There were some extra
blobs that weren't in ours -- probably changed after ours was generated.
Anyway, pulled all three i18n patches, applied and tested. They apply with
some offset, so I rediffed against clean source. Test results look good:

OK, I was going to check this out this weekend. I jsut ran a test on 8.24
today and my numbers are quite a bit different:
# TOTAL: 30
# PASS: 17
# SKIP: 13
# TOTAL: 578
# PASS: 457
# SKIP: 121
# TOTAL: 308

Did you miss one set of tests?
I'm also curious about the warning we give in the book. Any recent reports
of problems caused by this patch? All I could find was sort in 2009 (in
our own archives). There were 4 security issues with it back in 2013.
I'm not sure what you mean by 'problems caused by this patch'. I don't
recall any problems for quite some time. I'll plan on removing the
comment about the stty-pairs test.
