I've looked into this a bit further.

It looks like the work associated with PR lib/29832 was carried out in
Mar/Apr 2005.  Then in May 2005, a bunch of files (e.g.,
lib/libc/stdio/swprintf.c) were added to provide missing wide
character support.  I'm not certain, but would guess that the presence
of that support would make the earlier PR unnecessary.  Thus, it seems
that at least some of this should be reverted.

Is this the correct analysis?

If so, what should be done to fix this?  Is anyone willing to help?

Cheers,
Brook
