Right, there were two separate problems here:

o The broken shared build comes from the use of static constructors in 0.44,
which is hopefully fixed in 0.50 (I seem to remember someone saying that
they are all gone now).  So, shared libraries should work fine now in
OpenBSD, if we can get 0.50 to compile.

o We have wchar_t as a built-in type, in the g++ compiler, so we don't
actually need wchar.h to be included.  However, we don't have a lot of the
other wide-character functions (does FreeBSD?).

I haven't had enough time to investigate this, but I gave Pavel an account
on one of my OpenBSD boxes, so hopefully he will get a chance sometime :-)
