None of these can be fixed without a rewrite.
+[ *] Several (most?) collation specifications are broken. The code which
+ is currently there is in most cases inherited from the originial
+ author (in case there is a LC_COLLATE specification in the locale
+ file) or is defined using the default (if iso14651_t1 is included).
+
+ In any case we are missing information to correct the specification.
+ If you find the specification for your language be faulty please
+ send a report with instruction on what to fix. You don't have to
+ fix the specification yourself.
+
+ The way it finally should look like (if the generic specification
+ is not correct) can be seen in the sv_SE file. Quite a few changes
+ on top of the generic specification can be made without duplication
+ of the whole LC_COLLATE description.
