Pretty portable, and 2²¹ * sizeof(wchar_t)/CHAR_BITS is at best 2²⁵
or 32 MiB, so this would even work.
But common, for Unicode, is to use the planes.
struct {
wchar_t foo[0x100];
} *repl[0x1100];
Do note that sizeof(wchar_t) may be 16, and that the OS’ own
representation of wchar_t may not be Unicode, so the type would
be semantically wrong.
You might want to use uint32_t there.
