I don't think either 14094 (character map, LC_CTYPE) or 14095 (collation)
has anything to do with transliteration, and I wasn't aware of our
transliteration data coming from any upstream source for which there would
be merge issues for local changes.
Of course for both those bugs we do need to understand exactly how the
present files in glibc relate to an old version of the upstream data, in
order to make a correct merge, but I hope that in most cases, especially
for 14094, if we use the latest upstream data correctly we will be able to
satisfy ourselves that, if local changes made different choices from
upstream, there's no real advantage to the local version over the upstream
one.
