Thanks. Actually I originally had this functionality and removed it
because it seemed to be unnecessary, due to the requirement being
buried in that introductory text rather than the descriptions of the
individual functions. I figured the committee had just intentionally
decided not to copy this backwards functionality from the old
multibyte functions into the new uchar ones, but sadly that's not the
case...
