Yes, that's exactly what I said ;-). The problem is that for some
reason, the keyboard input which is of 2 bytes size (ucs2) is converted
to two 4-bytes chars (in ucs4); and this is clearly wrong.

This is another thing, this is about the memory size of wchar_t. On
linux (and other supported platforms), our char_type is wchar_t because
it has a 4 bytes size. On windows, wchar_t is only 2 bytes which is not
enough for our needs (everything is ucs4 internally).
