    representation of wchar's is assumed to be 31 bit unicode values in
    native endian representation.  Also, the underlying char encoding is
    assumed to match ASCII in the range 0-0x7f.

 locale support
 --------------
 1) The target for support is SUSv3 locale functionality.  While nl_langinfo
    has been extended, similar to glibc, it only returns values for related
    locale entries.
-2) Currently, collation support is being implemented.
+2) Currently, all SUSv3 libc locale functionality should be implemented

 2) uClibc's printf is much stricter than glibcs, especially regarding positional

    sophistication/performace for minimal size.
