Thanks Peter for testing, and thanks Robert for kicking this thread.

I think the problem is that the new "simple redirection" rule from the
Unicode database produces some values that are also present in
Latin-ASCII.xml, and these are all tolerated as long as the "from" and
"to" strings both match, because we uniquify them as pairs. But there
is one pair where the "to" string is different, resulting in this
clash:
ℌ x
ℌ H
I think the first line might actually be a bug in CLDR data. I dunno,
but this just doesn't look right:
ℌ → x ; # 210C;BLACK-LETTER CAPITAL H (compat)
And in the tests I now see that Michael had already figured that out!
I've included a kludge to remove that. Someone should file a ticket with CLDR.
