- how can we test whether freebsd's wchat_t support is good enough?
First of all is wchar_t really 32 bit on freebsd? I know that some unices
have 16bit wchar_t, IIRC AIX. This could be tested with a small test
program that simply prints sizeof(wchar_t). I know that the configure test
is supposed to find that out, but who knows.
I tried this and the result was sizeof(wchar_t) = 4.
I also see that it is installed in /usr/local. If that means that he
compiled himself from source then I would guess that something went wrong
with the configuration of the compiler. gcc has tons of configuration
options, and with many combinations you can get an unusable result (BTDT).
This gcc 4.1 was installed via ports (a package management system) as
the default gcc used by the system is gcc 3.4.6. Since it is tested by
the port maintainer and used by many people in the same setup, I think
it is fairly reliable (although it may not be as solid as the system gcc).
Another thing to try is to force Enricos facet implementation by applying
the attached patch. Does that change anything?
Unfortunately, this didn't change anything.

I will try this and post the result soon.
Thanks!
