Summary

Defect report DR_321 introduced a new pre-defined macro name, __STDC_MB_MIGHT_NEQ_WC__ that is conditionally defined by the implementation. However, this new macro is not in the list of macros that may be conditionally defined by the implementation in 6.10.8, para 2.

Suggested Technical Corrigendum

Add, in proper alphabetic order in the list in 6.10.8 para 2:

__STDC_MB_MIGHT_NEQ_WC__ The integer constant 1, intended to indicate that there might be some character x in the basic character set, such that 'x' need not be equal to L'x'.

Technical Corrigendum

Add, in proper alphabetic order in the list in 6.10.8 paragraph 2:

__STDC_MB_MIGHT_NEQ_WC__ The integer constant 1, intended to indicate that, in the encoding for wchar_t, a member of the basic character set need not have a code value equal to its value when used as the lone character in an integer character constant.
