Description
wcscmp() and wcsncmp() assume that wchar_t is int while it seems to be short unsigned int by default (and may be made such with -fshort-wchar). This breaks the comparison results by usually negating them which greatly confuses applications.
Attached is a simple patch that casts wchar_t to int before getting the result of the comparison.
