For that failure, this single comparison seems to hit it consistently
with ICU-52:
# SELECT 'ab' < 'abc'||chr(128519) COLLATE "bs-x-icu";
server closed the connection unexpectedlyThis probably means the server terminated abnormallybefore or while processing
therequest.
128519 is 'SMILING FACE WITH HALO' (U+1F607), and nearby codepoints
cause the same bug.
At least from this simple test we can produce a bug report
to the maintainers who are still interested in pre-53 versions.
