Doug Gwyn has now said It was certainly the original intent of C99 that identifiers would match only if encoded identically. It would probably be wise for any importing process to apply "canonicalization" to source code before it reaches the compiler. and Henry Spencer has said The approach I ended up using in a non-C project was to say that (a) all occurrences of an identifier must be encoded identically, and (b) it is forbidden for two different identifiers to have the same normalized form (for a suitable definition of normalization). -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9449
