 * If the system provides the needed functions for wide-character manipulation
 * (which are all standardized by C99), then we implement upper/lower/initcap
 * using wide-character functions.  Otherwise we use the traditional <ctype.h>
 * functions, which of course will not work as desired in multibyte character
 * sets.  Note that in either case we are effectively assuming that the
 * database character encoding matches the encoding implied by LC_CTYPE.
