check to see that a given digit is actually an octal digit. This leads to
unusual consequences if passed in values like \9.

data structures that scale better with large character sets, instead of
arrays indexed by character value:
- Sets of characters to delete/squeeze are stored in a new "cset" structure,
which is implemented as a splay tree of extents. This structure has the
ability to store character classes (ala wctype(3)), but this is not
currently fully utilized.
- Mappings between characters are stored in a new "cmap" structure, which
is also a splay tree.
- The parser no longer builds arrays containing all the characters in a
particular class; instead, next() determines them on-the-fly using
nextwctype(3).
1st one is relatively minor: according our own manpage, upper and lower
classes must be sorted, but currently not.
2nd one is serious:
tr '[:lower:]' '[:upper:]'
(and vice versa) currently works only if upper and lower classes
have exact the same number of elements. When it is not true, like for
many ISO8859-x locales which have bigger amount of lowercase letters,
tr may do nasty things.

for detailed description of desired tr behaviour in such cases.
