I just looked at lib/url.c... how do you NFC'ed the input to idn2_lookup_ul(),
couldn't find any conversion using a quick grep ?
My suggestion would be:
diff --git a/lib/url.c b/lib/url.c
index 7944d7b0c..81cd490e0 100644
--- a/lib/url.c
+++ b/lib/url.c

struct hostname *host)

if(idn2_check_version(IDN2_VERSION)) {
char *ace_hostname = NULL;
- int rc = idn2_lookup_ul((const char *)host->name, &ace_hostname, 0);
+#ifdef IDN2_TRANSITIONAL
+ int flags = IDN2_TRANSITIONAL;
+#else
+ int flags = IDN2_INPUT_NFC;
+#endif
+ int rc = idn2_lookup_ul((const char *)host->name, &ace_hostname, flags);
if(rc == IDN2_OK) {
host->encalloc = (char *)ace_hostname;
/* change the name pointer to point to the encoded hostname */
That way there is a chance that the tests work more stable between different
systems.
