Yep, how about defining our own macro when wchar_t is really a type, and
defining it in the build system, and documenting it as a user settable macro
in the config system.  How about BOOST_NATIVE_WCHAR_T for want of a better
name?

BTW the msvc toolset now has a <native-wchar_t> setting, maybe we could do
the same for the Intel one?
