What do you mean with "implement in C/C++"?

If you mean adding libraries to C/C++ that correctly deal with Unicode: 
that's nothing you do with a compiler infrastructure. And probably 
duplicate work, since Unicode libraries already exist.

If you mean making the C/C++ compiler understand Unicode string 
literals: either that's in the language standard and implemented by 
conformant compilers already, or it's not in the language standard, 
implementing it would deviate from the standard, and it would not be 
"rightly" implemented. (I'm not a C/C++ guy so I don't know whether it's 
actually in the standard, but if it isn't, I guess any compiler has 
extensions already.)

Hm.

Maybe we're talking at the wrong level here, so:
What's the problem/need that you wish to address?
