But there's a wchar_t type, but that's presumably only 16 bits, so we
don't use it, right?

Ok, that's from boost::stdint..

I guess that's the common pattern and they are the only ones that are
required.

That would be a solution, but it's already a bit more of 'handcoding'
than I'd consider sensible. I mean, have a few typedefs instead of
#include <bigstuff> is ok, duplicating ~200 lines rather not...
Is your wchar_t really 16 bit?
