  Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  In the C or POSIX locales, this function can return @code{(size_t) -1}
  and set @code{errno} to @code{EILSEQ}:
  @c https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19932

  Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  On Windows and 32-bit AIX platforms, @code{wchar_t} is a 16-bit type and
  therefore cannot accommodate all Unicode characters.
  @mindex mbstoc32s
  However, the Gnulib function @code{mbstoc32s}, provided by Gnulib module
  @code{mbstoc32s}, operates on 32-bit wide characters and therefore does not
  have this limitation.
