[issue16587] Py_Initialize breaks wprintf on Windows

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor added the comment:

"In C++ this often means using std::wstring and std::wcout. Maybe these are more common than wprintf? In any case the console output breaks as Py_Initialize hijacks the host application's standard output streams which sounds quite illegitimate to me."

On Linux, std::wcout doesn't use wprintf(). Do you mean that std::wcout also depends on the "mode" of stdout (_setmode)?
