So, libutf9 is using UTF-16 internally? (That's what many, if not most
implementations do. They translate any UTF into UTF-16 and work with
that. It is easier than with UTF-8, especially when implementing
advanced stuff like character class lookups and character/string
mappings, but is not that hard on memory as UTF-32.)
