Subject: bug#23358: merging byte to wide char caches in gawk
Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2016 01:12:13 -0600

The silence in response to this has been thundering. :-(

Ignoring the gawk bits, is the grep team willing to incorporate the
dfa.[ch] changes?

Should this wait until after other pending changes to dfa are applied?

Thanks,

Arnold
