Actually \003\176 seems perfectly practical to me.

It seems strange for me that similar mechanism is not > work with C++ locales. POSIX seems a good point, probably you should have mentioned it much earlier. Let's hear Martin again, then. Certainly, however, I'm concerned about having a behavior different from all the other implementations mentioned by Martin. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39168
