Ugh... that would be one of my target compilers eventually(*). :-/

I saw some discussion on the libstc++-v3 mailing list about having to
make wchar_t 32 bit, to make it able to hold UCS-4.  I didn't know it
ended up being the case.


(*) I'm currently using 1.2-pre2, because it was the first one that
    worked for me since egcs-1.0.3 and I probably won't upgrade again
    until gcc is reasonably stable.  And I'm currently not using
    wstring and wchar_t
