I've just read the relevant parts of the C11 spec, and it's not really clear to me what the 'basic character set' is.  There are two possible interpretations:

- The set of characters that can be represented by a char in locale "C"
- The set of characters that can be represented by a char in *any* locale

On FreeBSD, it is correct to define __STDC_MB_MIGHT_NEQ_WC__ for the second definition, but not for the first.  Can anyone point to something in the spec that clarifies this?
