Yes, I did.  The _getchar_unlocked and _putchar_unlocked macros as well
as the __SINGLE_THREAD__ getc and putc macros(*).  I also missed the
putc{har}_unlocked and getc{har}_unlocked functions.

They all call __sgetc_r or __sputs_r, both being macros in stdio.h.
The underlying functions __srget_r and __swbuf_r are shared between
byte and wide-char orientation functions.

Drat.  Looks like we really have to do the ORIENT stuff inside the
__sgetc_r/__sputs_r macros...

(*) I'm deliberately ignoring the fast_putc macro. It's so much beyond
    standards and old as dirt.  I wonder if we shouldn't remove it.
