I haven't looked at the code but it "feels" like the wrong approach:
Why isn't this a 'std::codecvt<char, wchar_t, std::mbstate_t>'
facet? This would be the preferred approach allowing dynamic
plugging of different encoding for one stream without loosing too
much efficiency? No doubt, this can probably be turned into a code
conversion facet relatively easy...
