Note, anyway, that there is a serious blocker to any enhancement in this area
(and of course it explains the current behavior): if wcin & co are converting,
they deal with the underlying stream as a narrow-character oriented stream. But
when the stream is synced it must be possible to mix char-by-char with wchar_t
C stdio operations, which require a wide-character orientation of the stream,
whereas, per C99 7.19.2, the orientation of a stream cannot be changed after
opening.
