Re Wide Unicode build for Windows available somewhere?

> Wide unicode is currently not supported on Windows. A number of
internal APIs (in particular for the registry, and for the "mbcs"
codec) assume that sizeof(Py_UNICODE) is 2. Contributions are
welcome. Even with that fixed, Pythonwin would still need a major rework
to support wide Unicode.


Thanks Martin for your reply. So this looks rather dim. I usually
work on a Mac, where wide support is just a matter of

../configure --enable-unicode=ucs4
make

so I foolishly thought it must be similar on Windows.

All the best,
