http://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx0x.html shows Unicode string literals (N2442) as
being supported in gcc 4.4. But this little program fails to compile:
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
std::cout << u8"foo" << std::endl;
}
C:\gcc>bin\g++ -std=gnu++0x u8-literal.cpp
u8-literal.cpp: In function 'int main()':
u8-literal.cpp:5: error: 'u8' was not declared in this scope
u8-literal.cpp:5: error: expected ';' before string constant
C:\gcc>bin\g++ -v

Is this a bug in gcc? A bug in the C++0x Support page? A bug in my test?
Thanks for all the great work on C++0x!
