However the documentation of `isAlphaNum` says "Selects alphabetic or numeric digit Unicode characters" and doesn't mention the "mark" characters. Should we fix the documentation of `isAlphaNum` to include "mark" characters or keep the documentation as it is and fix `u_iswalnum`? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10412#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
