Yeah, that's an ancient sore spot: we don't really know what the
representation of wchar is. We assume it's Unicode code points
for UTF8 locales, but libc isn't required to do that AFAIK. See
comment block starting about line 20 in regc_pg_locale.c.
I doubt that ICU has much to do with this directly.
We'd have to find an alternate source of knowledge to replace the
<wctype.h> functions if we wanted to fix it fully ... can ICU do that?
