OK - are there standard library implementations which use other than unicode (or variants there of) for wchar_t encodings?

IIRC, this question was asked at one of the committee meetings, and the answer was "yes". It may have been Sun, although I'm not sure. The rationale was simply that the compiler predated Unicode. Presumably the vendor will continue with their current encoding for wchar_t, and use Unicode encodings for char16_t and char32_t strings. --Beman
