No I don't but that reminds me, I started working on the
Normative Addition 1 (see http://www.lysator.liu.se/c/na1.html)
to ANSI C, which mainly includes wide versions of the io
functions (eg fgetwc and fputwc) and ctype functions (iswalpha
etc.).  I don't really have time to work on this little project
but would be happy to donate what I have to anyone who would be
interested. 

I also have a servicable LC_CTYPE for making Unicode based
locales (using UTF-8 encoding).
