-This function is missing on some platforms:

+On AIX and Windows platforms, @code{wchar_t} is a 16-bit type and therefore cannot
+accommodate all Unicode characters.
+@item
+The specification is not clear about whether this function should update the
+conversion state when the first argument (the destination pointer) is NULL.
+The glibc, Mac OS X, FreeBSD implementations do update the state in this case.
+For portability, when passing a NULL destination argument, it is best to pass
+a pointer to a temporary copy of the conversion state.
