[Serge Gautherie (:sgautherie)]

Could you remove the following line too?
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/search?string=ucvmath&case=on&find=%2Fintl%2Fuconv%2Fdirectory.txt
{
/intl/uconv/directory.txt
    * line 21 -- ucvmath - Mathematical charsets (symbols for MathML/scientific
documents)
}

I was going to just remove that line, but the whole file is way out of date -- see http://bonsai.mozilla.org/cvslog.cgi?file=mozilla/intl/uconv/directory.txt&rev=HEAD&mark=1.2

*Adding* that line at 2000-03-23 was the last change made, and removing it would revert the file to the initial checkin at 1999-01-08 which has very little relation to current reality, so I'd rather rewrite the whole thing.
