The RI contains a portion of previously released Maintenance Release 2 of the Java SE 8 (Unicode Characters) updates as well.

Changes look correct to me, assuming the new test passes.

Most of these changes are drawn from JDK-8211398 (the currency and Japanese era addition, and the new test) which made it to 8u211/212, but not a new reference implementation. I expect the changes for 8u382 will be simpler as they can just build on top of 8211398, as the separate commits here suggest.
