Comment (by marshall):

 Additional information:

 The C++ standard (I looked at n3216) specifies (in 22.3.1.1.1) that
 `numpunct<char>` and `numpunct<wchar_t>` are required, and does not
 mention `numpunct<char16_t>` or `numpunct<char32_t>` at all.

 gcc (I checked version 4.8) provides a completely templated implementation
 of `std::numpunct`, so it supports specializing on any character type.
 libc++ provides two implementations: one for `char` and the other for
 `wchar_t`.
