6 /* Unicode has changed over the years. Unicode code points no longer
7 * fit into 16 bits; as of Unicode 5 valid code points range from 0
8 * to 0x10ffff (17 planes, where each plane holds 65536 code points).
10 * The original decision to represent Unicode characters as 16-bit
11 * wchar_t values is now outdated. But plane 0 still includes the
12 * most commonly used characters, so we will retain it. The newer
13 * 32-bit unicode_t type can be used when it is necessary to
14 * represent the full Unicode character set.
