I see the actual problem now, it's not as bad as I initially thought (it was
late at night when I started debugging this!)
The code in generic/ctype_members.cc assumes that each ctype_base::mask
constant will either be a single bit, or be the bitwise-or of other
ctype_base::mask constants, which works because e.g. if alnum is
upper|lower|digit, then do_is(alnum, L'c') will match on lower.
But netbsd defines ctype_base::xdigit as _N|_X where _N is ctype_base::digit
but _X corresponds to [A-Fa-f] and is not used in any other ctype_base::mask
constant, so the wide characters [A-Fa-f] cannot be matched by xdigit.
newlib similarly uses _X|_N for xdigit, but has --enable-clocale=newlib so
doesn't use the generic code.
bionic uses _X|_N but I don't think it supports wchar_t anyway
I believe vxworks and qnx would fail to match is(ctype::space, L' ') and
is(ctype::print, L' ') for similar reasons, if they support wchar_t
