Comment (by apolukhin):

 Replying to [comment:1 anonymous]:
 > About the proposed fix.  To decide whether source type is char, you
 first ask whether it's char or wchar, and then compare sizeofs.  I think
 the same can be achieved by simply asking whether src is char.  I might be
 missing something though.  That's what the patch implements.

 The problem here, is that we have char, unsigned char, signed char,
 wchar_t, char16_t and char32_t types (not only char). And we still need to
 construct stringbuffer for char types with different sizes.[[BR]]

 Great thanks for bug report and for giving ideas for it fixing.
