In that case, wouldn't it make sense to fix iswupper in the first place? It relies on the towupper function in newlib/libc/ctype/towlower.c. However, I don't understand the example. 0xff21 is FULLWIDTH LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A. This is very certainly an uppercase letter so towlower transforms it to 0xff41, FULLWIDTH LATIN SMALL LETTER A. However, testing this with GLibc it turns out that GLibc's towlower does not transform the character but returns 0xff21. Can anybody explain to me why? Apart from that, we can workaround all problems in tzsetwall by just checking for if (*src >= L'A' && *src <= L'Z') So, yeah, I can do the above change to tzsetwall and it would be nice if somebody could take a critical look over newlib's towlower.c and toupper.c.
