Alternatively, copy the header file from a Perl distribution:

    https://metacpan.org/release/JSON-Parse

The header file is under "Browse" then "unicode.h".

* Testing:

Compile with -DTEST or use "make test" to run the tests. The tests are
contained in unicode.c itself. Please refer to the source
code. Running the tests requires the "prove" utility which is part of
Perl.
