#8763: format does not compile with char16_t strings and libc++
------------------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  timblechmann      |      Owner:  samuel_krempp
     Type:  Bugs              |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined  |  Component:  format
  Version:  Boost 1.54.0      |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                    |
------------------------------+---------------------------
 the following code does not compile with clang:

 {{{
 #include <boost/format.hpp>

 int main(int argc, const char * argv[])
 {
     std::basic_string<char16_t> abc =
 (boost::basic_format<char16_t>(u"Hello")).str();
     return 0;
 }
 }}}

 the reason is that libc++ does not provide std::ctype<char16_t>, as it is
 not provided by the standard.
