Someone might have to explain this patch to me in simple words that I can
understand, but I don't understand what it is doing, really.

In particular, there is "runtime" code to check the "sizeof(wchar_t)" and
do the Right Thing - but of course "sizeof(wchar_t)" will be a constant on
any given host so there's a reasonable chance (indeed we need to hope!)
that the compiler will optimise away the redundant options on each host
leaving just the one option (probably the FcChar32 option on linux, for
example...)

So... how is that better? I'm missing something important here,
obviously...

In the previous code, we just used the XFT UTF8 rendering directly, so I
assume the intent of this patch is that we "clean" the nominally-UTF8 text
into a parsed and "error-corrected" wchar_t string, and then render that -
is that what is being done here?
