I don't like this approach. Adding compile time options means we need to test more versions, but is no help to end users as they will end up with the release version anyway.
I agree with Mark. This sounds less pointless complication and undue maintenance overhead. I would like to propose the opposite approach. Simply remove those functions and the wchar_t cache now. They have been deprecated since 3.3. Yes, there's going to be a bit of pain for a couple downstream projects (mostly Cython), but it should be minor anyway. Regards Antoine.
