OK, I see now. I had understood "C" to stand for the traditional C behavior and not the less-well-specified behavior of the POSIX-specified C locale. >> Such machines do exist.

I was thinking more of digital signal processors. For example, I believe the Freescale (formely Motorola) compilers define CHAR_BIT to be 32 for some of their CPUs. Admittedly I'm not a DSP weenie so I don't know how popular those systems actually are. Perhaps we could ask the GNU Radio folks. _______________________________________________ bug-gnulib mailing list bug-gnulib@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gnulib
