This is a feature request for char16_t and char32_t builtin types when
compiling as C++0x. I've been meaning to do this since April, 2007.

For C++0x library-side, this is a relatively big change in terms of supported
API. In particular, numeric_limits, char_traits, basic_string, io, and locale
are all impacted.

See:

Language-side:
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2007/n2149.html

Library-side:
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2007/n2238.html

The library side is a separate issue, but for now just getting the language
side in would be useful.
