fxlibc/STATUS

This file describes the implementation status and some notes; information is
taken from the C99 standard (ISO/IEC 9899:1999), section 7 ("Library").

# Notes for implementers

7.1.2§6:
  Use (extern) in all function prototypes
7.1.3§1:
  Only expose standard identifiers; anything else might be defined as a macro.
  Make sure every argument name, internal function name, etc. starts with
  either "__" or "_X" (where X is any uppercase letter)
7.1.4§1:
  Always give a function even if there is a macro definition, so that the
  address of the function can be taken; don't rely on the macro being defined,
  as the user can remove it except in some special cases

# Status

In this file, every definition is classified in one of several implementation
statuses. There are 5 stages that every definition should go through.

TODO:       Function/symbol/macro is not implemented/defined

LDEPS(...): Function/symbol/macro needs ... to link
TEST:       Function/symbol/macro needs to be tested

# Supporting locales

What if we wanted to support more locales?
-> Need to a mechanism to supply the raw information, similar to the text files
   in /usr/share/i18n/locales
-> Implement setlocale() and localeconv() properly (not hard)
-> Probably support nl_langinfo(), which is much better than localeconv()
-> Fix the "TODO: locale: ..." messages wherever assumptions on the locale are
   made in the code
-> Properly implement strcoll() and strxfrm()
