Hello,

The ansi version I would simply let it die. It's time people migrate
to Unicode anyway. The change from ansi to utf-8 is very easy.
About the rest I will not comment. But the above certainly will not happen.
The ansistring version must remain for backwards compatibility.
Current strategy on fpc core seems to be to have 2 RTLs:
One with unicode string, one with ansistring.
They will have the same code, but will be compiled twice,
each time with a different compiler define to decide which
version it must be.
