Subpackages for sqlite3 and mingw may need updated from the latest ICU release.
Packages unicode-cldr-emoji-annotation, unicode-ucd, and fonts used in Japanese,
may also need updated as below.
Not sure if any GUI date or locale packages need updated.

Add new Windows Era if you are on W10 1809, and maybe W7 and earlier, if still
unpatched:
