I used the discussion about the locale stuff to hop in and ask for
getting the most wanted feature I'm looking for:
A bare bone (shared) library without all this locale, wchar_t and multi
byte overhead. Just having a library which always assume C locale and
UTF-8 byte streams, as I ought all this locale stuff is a big block of
code, which I heavily dislike and never use (got my own UTF-8 handling
when and where required). This library with disabled locale stuff should
otherwise still be compatible, just adding the bare minimum of overhead
on those locale functions (allowing only the single C locale).
Is that specific enough?
