You may review the report below and at:
http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=5890&eid=4696

--------------------------------------
Status: Verified
Type: Editorial

Reported by: Juan Altmayer Pizzorno <juan@sparkpost.com>
Date Reported: 2016-05-17
Verified by: Alexey Melnikov (IESG)

Section: 4.2

Original Text
-------------
Because A-labels (the form actually used in the
DNS) are potentially much more compressed than UTF-8 (and UTF-8 is,
in general, more compressed that UTF-16 or UTF-32), U-labels that
obey all of the relevant symmetry (and other) constraints of these
documents  may be quite a bit longer, potentially up to 252 characters
(Unicode code points).

Corrected Text
--------------
Because A-labels (the form actually used in the
DNS) are potentially much more compressed than UTF-8 (and UTF-8 is,
in general, more compressed that UTF-16 or UTF-32), U-labels that
obey all of the relevant symmetry (and other) constraints of these
documents  may be quite a bit longer, potentially up to 252 octets.
