If JVMs really can't support unicode NFC then that's a strong\ncase to limit the spec to the subset of unicode that all popular\nplatforms can support, but it sounds like it might just be a JVM\nstring library bug that could hopefully be reported and fixed. I get\nthe same result as in the test case using apple's\nCFStringNormalize(passphrase, kCFStringNormalizationFormC);\n\nAaron Voisine\nbreadwallet.com\n\n\nOn Tue, Jul 15, 2014 at 11:20 AM, Mike Hearn \u003cmike at plan99.net\u003e wrote:\n\u003e Yes, we know, Andreas' code is indeed doing normalisation.\n\u003e\n\u003e However it appears the output bytes end up being different.
