Yes they are part of Gambit since last September, with a few tweaks =
since then. It implements Unicode 15.0. It has been checked against =
Racket (there are a few differences that seem to be due to differences =
in how =E2=80=9Cnumeric characters=E2=80=9D are defined in R6RS and R7RS =
specs).

The implementation creates all the data structures by analyzing the =
Unicode database files. These files are the main ones implementing SRFI =
14:
