The standard C wchar* stuff is not implemented in FreeBSD.  There's
been some drive to get it merged in (I found a bunch of stuff in the
i18n mailing list in Oct and Nov 2000), but there's a lot of fretting,
since changes to libc are so touchy.

If you know C, your best bet is to hack around in the relevant file,
and see if you can get the functionality you need without the stuff
from wchar.h (or wctype.h, if that's included).  Any recent C
reference (one that contains the ISO 1995 amendment) will tell you
what the functions in question do.
