Yeah, I thought of that but then I grepped through newlib and there seemed
to be plenty of references to it. Then I added:
namespace std {
typedef std::basic_string <wchar_t> wstring;
};
after the '#include <string>' above, fixed the typo to add a class name,
and things compiled fine for me. So it seems to me like newlib is not
the bottleneck for wide character support. Or did I miss something?
