I have now checked in a working implementation of the approach I suggested. 
It uses a trick to pass the information to the implementation via the 
basic_string_impl class and has a complicated implementation of swap 
(non-virtual :)!).

The only functions not available to [w]char_string are substr and +, but 
these are available in fixed_string itself.

I have also fixed the problems with fsstring.hpp and Borland, since Borland 
may make strcpy, etc macro functions to its intrinsic versions (__strcpy__, 
etc.)

Regards,
Reece
