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.
