Description

§2.3:16 (fls_vde7gev5rz4q) reads:

Identifiers are normalized using Normalization Form C as defined in Unicode Standard Annex #15.

Unicode normalization depends on the Unicode version, so this should specify the version, either in a similar way to §2.3:5 (fls_jpecw46eh061) or by finding a common place to specify the version in effect for lexing.

Research direction

Start with §2.3:16 (fls_vde7gev5rz4q) and compare its Unicode Normalization Form C wording with §2.3:5 (fls_jpecw46eh061). Check whether the version belongs in the normalization statement or in a common lexing section; the work is done when the Unicode version in effect is specified unambiguously.
