Again, LC_CTYPE does *not* affect source file interpretation.
I understand what you're saying. What I am saying is that if this
is how c99 behaves it's in conflict with POSIX because LC_CTYPE
is exactly how source file interpretation is specified to be
controlled:
LC_CTYPE
Determine the locale for the interpretation of sequences of
bytes of text data as characters (for example, single-byte
as opposed to multi-byte characters in arguments and input
files).
I think we should clearly update the documentation to reflect reality
regarding source file encoding, and leave it strictly for wrappers such as
"c99" to specify -finput-charset= options rather than leaving open the
possibility that GCC's own default might change in future.
That sounds reasonable.
