As noted in bug 17979 (and as I noted earlier in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-02/msg00647.html>), uchar.h
has gratuitously complicated code to determine the types for char16_t
and char32_t, and to reject including that header for pre-C11
compilers not defining __CHAR16_TYPE__ and __CHAR32_TYPE__. Since
those types are always required to match uint_least16_t and
uint_least32_t, which glibc knows how to define without reference to
such predefined macros, it's safe just to define those types the same
as the *least* types are defined in stdint.h, so allowing the header
to work with (for example) GCC 4.3.
This patch implements that. bits/types.h is made to define
__int_leastN_t and __uint_leastN_t so the logic for those types can
stay in a single place, and stdint.h is made to use those __*_t to
define the public *_t types. uchar.h is then made to use
__uint_least16_t and __uint_least32_t to define char16_t and char32_t,
so simplifying the logic there. A new test is added that verifies the
types chosen for char16_t and char32_t do indeed match the types the
compiler uses for u"" and U"" string literals.
Tested for x86_64. (I have not tested with any of the older compilers
for which this would actually make a difference to whether you can
include uchar.h.)

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library.
See the file "version.h" for what release version you have.
The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems,
and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system. It provides the
system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such
as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming
languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system.
In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to
implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications.
In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers.
The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the
GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu. The current
GNU/Hurd support requires out-of-tree patches that will eventually be
incorporated into an official GNU C Library release.
When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library
requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later.
Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be
installed for the pthread library to work correctly.
The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels:

If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc
maintainers; see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more
information.
See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install
the GNU C Library. You might also consider reading the WWW pages for
the C library at http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/.
The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual
found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated
and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not
have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. For
corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component,
following the bug-reporting instructions below. Please be sure to check
the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has
already been corrected.
Please see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting
information. We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports.
This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly.
The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying
conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require
these additional notices to be distributed. License copyright years may be
listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in
the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed
individually.
