wchar_t
|
glibc의 관리자 Drepper씨도 wchar_t를 구현할 때에 UCS를 쓰지 않고 locale에 의존하는
X11식의 방법을 쓰려했다고 한다. 아무튼 glibc의 iconv는 UCS4를 wchar_t로 하였고
wchar_t는 locale dependent하지 않게 되었다.
X11에서는 wchar_t가 locale depedent하다고 한다.
FreeBSD는 아직 iconv()함수를 가지고 있지 않다. 그런데 그들은 wchar_t != UCS라고
생각하고 있으며, 일본의 영향을 많이 받은듯.

The really silly thing is that there are people currently (2001) working
on fresh all-new locale support for FreeBSD, and they do not (yet) plan to
keep wchar_t = UCS for all locales. I had a discussion with them, and I am
afraid, I have now to conclude that they are simply ignorant and full of
bizzare historic misconceptions about Unicode (they are roughly frozen at
the state of the discussion in the Japanese Unix community around 1993
before JIS X 0221 was published and everyone believed that the now mostly
forgotten TRON code would bring the salvation to the Japanese character
set chaos).
