[mkgmap-dev] [mkgmap-svn] Commit r4810: revert changes from r4809 for now, they caused more trouble

Hi Gerd

After considering all places where the createSortKey strength must be
set I've decided it isn't a good approach:

1/ It needs changes in NET and LBL as well as MDR.
2/ Because case-differences are not sorted, an apparently sorted and
unique list of city/region/country could be out of order if there are
case differences in the initial letters of duplicates.
This also makes mdrCheck comparisons difficult

This would have been mdrUnicode_v4.patch

Attached patch doesn't change the Key/Sort behaviour but follows the
sort with collator.compare where necessary instead of key.compareTo()
or .equals()

Ticker
