(In reply to Jonathan Wakely from comment #6)
> =E2=89=A0 cannot be used in an identifier, and it's none of the other for=
ms either.

at the risk of beating a dead horse, what you are saying here is that =E2=
=89=A0 simply
cannot be used, ever, anywhere, in C/C++.

that seems like kind of a waste.  a whole raft of unicode characters that
simply cannot be used.  so much for embracing unicode.  Maybe someone wants=
 to
name a variable "=C2=A732" for some reason, but can't because...

why exactly?

because the spec says so.=
