What I mean is, we have the following functions and variables:

Functions and Macros:

 char-to-unicode                - Convert character to Unicode codepoint.
i  default-unicode-precedence-list - Return the default precedence list used
for Unicode decoding.
i  language-unicode-precedence-list - Return the language-specific
precedence list used for Unicode decoding.
i  load-unicode-mapping-table     - Load Unicode tables with the Unicode
mapping data in FILENAME for CHARSET.
b  load-unicode-tables            - Initialize the Unicode translation
tables for all standard charsets.
i  set-default-unicode-precedence-list - Set the default precedence list
used for Unicode decoding.
i  set-language-unicode-precedence-list - Set the language-specific
precedence of charsets in Unicode decoding.
i  set-unicode-conversion         - Add conversion information between
Unicode codepoints and characters.
i  unicode-precedence-list        - Return the precedence order among
charsets used for Unicode decoding.
i  unicode-to-char                - Convert Unicode codepoint to character.

Variables and Constants:

   load-unicode-tables-at-dump-time - [INTERNAL] Whether to load the Unicode
tables at dump time.

I don't want to have a different set of functions in GNU Emacs that we then
have to support.
