You're right. If (contrary to fact) we wanted to build wx with --utf-whatever,
then we'd need to modify the switch on wxString[n] in the group quote code.
However, in reality we want to change from std::wcout to std::cout, right?
But now I'm confused about that, too, because grepping for 'wcout' finds
nothing--maybe 'wcout' is implicitly used by wxPuts(). I'm having an acute
sinus attack and can't focus on anything else, so please ignore whatever I
say--you know the right thing to do.
