The following text on page 9:

    The term "character" means a single Unicode code point and
    implementations are not required to carry out normalisation.  Thus
    U+0084 (A-dieresis) is one character while U+0041 U+0308 (A composed
    with dieresis) is two; the two need not be treated as equivalent.

is problematic and is unlikely to pass muster.

Welcome to the wonderful world of stringprep.
