On the errors in kMandarin:
Apart from the kMandarin errors of the kind that Andrew West has noted,
there is another corruption, namely the loss of ü, and this happened
between "3.0b1" and "3.0b2", when the ü became the two bytes C393.
As to Han/Yi, "U+6C49 YI4 HAN4" is found not only in "3.0b1" and "3.0b2",
but also in "2.0". The HAN4 was dropped only in 3.2.
While I admire the effort to "explain" the intrusion of YI4, I feel it is a
bit misplaced, and that some more mechanical/clerical explanation is in
order. After all, look at the number of times "same as U+.... " is written
as "sama as U+... " in 3.2: 6 to be precise.
