Re: Signedness issue in utf-8 code?

That code is only in use when sizeof(wchar_t) >= 4. The C library standard mandates wchar_t to be integer, thus signed. If I promote 0x80000000 to 0x80000000LL, when sizeof(wchar_t) == 4, like in my case, the test will always be true, and the compiler will complain about the test always being true. Everything would be fine otherwise.

Now C90 compilers get to warn about long long instead. With the new #if SIZEOF_WCHAR_T > 4, "if(wchar < (wchar_t)0x80000000UL)" should be sufficient.
