I did notice that wchar_t is defined in stddef.h or something like
that.  But there are no wc* functions to go with it!

The way I see it, we can either write all of our own wc* functions,
which is somewhat of a task to do right, or we could do something
really weird and make wxString use CFString on darwin.  That might be
harder though.

nm /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib | grep wc

Only wc<->mb conversion functions it seems.
