introduce $^U, a global bit to indicate whether system
calls should using widechar APIs; chr and sprintf "%c" also
follow this flag in the absense of "use byte"; "use utf8"
sets $^U=1 (this appears kludgey)

Gurusamy Sarathy [Mon, 31 Jan 2000 04:57:42 +0000]
runtime now looks at the SVf_UTF8 bit on the SV to decide
whether to use widechar semantics; lexer and RE engine continue
to need "use utf8" to enable unicode awareness in literals
and patterns (TODO: this needs to be fixed); $1 et al are marked
SvUTF8 if the pattern was compiled for utf8 (TODO: propagating
it from the data is probably better)
