Case-insensitive string functions are borked

Description

..but it's not my problem. Tango's toFold data seems to be incorrect, causing case-insensitive string manipulation to be wrong. (see here). For example, toFold("I") != toFold("i"), causing various issues.

This affects:

  • ifind
  • irfind
  • istartsWith
  • iendsWith

Hopefully this'll be fixed by 0.99.5.

Well, 0.99.6 and this is still not fixed.

This kind of irks me.

Removing the MiniD 2 milestone since this is not a prerequisite; and since I am now the maintainer of tango.text.* I'll be fixing this probably sometime in December (after MD2 is released).
