You have to persuade Bernd Schmidt to apply the patch, GCC is beyond
control of the glibc developers.

Subject: Changing WCHAR_TYPE from "long int" to "int"?

I am working with Eric to clean up the Linux/mips configuration in
gcc 3.x. I'd like to change WCHAR_TYPE from "long int" to "int". They
are the same on Linux/mips. There won't be any run-time problems. I am
wondering if there are any compatibility problems at the compile time
at the source and binary level. For one thing, __WCHAR_TYPE__ will be
changed from "long int" to "int". The only thing I can think of is
the C++ libraries. But gcc 3.x doesn't work on Linux/mips. The one
I am working on will be the first gcc 3.x for Linux/mips. So there
shouldn't be any problems. Am I right?
