I moved the file pg_wchar.h into src/include/common and split out
most of the functions you marked as being suitable for the
backend only into a new file src/include/utils/mbutils.h. That
resulted in the need to include this new “utils/mbutils.h” from
a number of .c files in the source tree.
One issue that came up was libpq/pqformat.h uses a couple
of those functions from within static inline functions, preventing
me from moving those to a backend-only include file without
making pqformat.h a backend-only include file.
I think the right thing to do here is to move references to these
functions into pqformat.c by un-inlining these functions. I have
not done that yet.
There are whitespace cleanup issues I’m not going to fix just
yet, since I’ll be making more changes anyway. What do you
think of the direction I’m taking in the attached?
