I'm not sure I can answer these questions. The change seems to
originate from
1999-01-28 Baron Roberts <baron@sgi.com>
* string: Uncomment wstring declaration.
so maybe he can comment.
Did you actually try to uncomment the declaration? From looking at the
code, I see potential problems with string_char_traits<wchar_t>, which
is ifdef-ed out. If it where activated, you'd need to have the
following from the C library:
<wctype.h>
wmemcmp
wcslen
wmemcpy
wmemset
I can imagine that this is not available on all platforms supported by
g++.
