They made Sun C 5.8 emit a warning such as:
line 71: warning: dead part of constant expression is nonconstant
* libguile/print.c (scm_print_opts): Don't use `SCM_UNPACK ()' here.
* libguile/read.c (scm_read_opts): Likewise.
* doc/ref/api-evaluation.texi (Character Encoding of Source Files):
Don't suggest `latin1' as a good encoding name since Emacs cannot deal
with it.
* libguile/read.c (scm_file_encoding): Fix "Emacs" spelling.
* libguile/read.c (scm_scan_for_encoding): Rename to ...
(scm_i_scan_for_encoding): ... this; update callers. Use
`scm_gc_strndup ()' instead of `scm_malloc ()'.

returned by `scm_i_scan_for_encoding ()'.
Since combining characters, such as accents, modify the appearance of the
previous letter, it looks awkward in its character literal form (#\name)
since it modified the backslash. This instead prints the combining
character on a small circle.

Ports are given two additional properties: a character encoding and
a conversion failure strategy. These properties have getters and setters.
The new properties are used to convert any locale text to/from the
internal representation of strings.
If unspecified, ports use a default value. The default value of these
properties is held in a fluid. The default character encoding can be
modified by calling setlocale.
ISO-8859-1 is treated specially. Since it is a native encoding of
strings, it can be processed more quickly. Source code is assumed to be
ISO-8859-1 unless otherwise specified. The encoding of a source code
file can be given as 'coding: XXXXX' in a magic comment at the top of a
file.
The C functions that deal with encoding often use a null pointer
as shorthand for the native Latin-1 encoding, for efficiency's sake.

This adds full Unicode strings as a datatype, and it adds some
minimal functionality. The terminal and port encoding is assumed
to be ISO-8859-1. Non-ISO-8859-1 characters are written or
input as string character escapes.
The string character escapes now have 3 forms: \xXX \uXXXX and
\UXXXXXX, for unprintable characters that have 2, 4 or 6 hex digits.
The process for writing to strings has been modified. There is now a
function scm_i_string_start_writing that does the copy-on-write
conversion if necessary.
To compile strings that may be wide, the VM storage of strings and
string-likes has changed.
Most string-using functions have not yet been updated and may break
when used with wide strings.
