Hello.

So here's a worklist for improving C99 compliance:

* Floating-point updates: K. B. Williams is on the case. His work needs
integrating.

* Complex number support (complex.h): may be part of K. B. Williams's work.

* Type-generic maths support (tgmath.h): may be part of K. B. Williams's work.

* Wide-character support: Mark E. did some work on it four years ago. This
needs dusting off, integrating and updating. (There are some new
wide-character functions in C99, I think.)

Here are some messages from the thread about wide-characters:
