ISO C provides no mean to find out how many bytes the wide

return the information for the multi-byte character representation.

It is known that some Motif applications have this problem. To
cure this one has to make sure the glibc uses the function in this
file instead of the one in locale/mb_cur_max.c. This can either be
done by linking with this file or by using the LD_PRELOAD feature
of the dynamic linker. */
