Well, there is a way, but it's tricky ;-) Yes, this inconsistency caused me a lot of grief while working on this bug. > So, it should be removed and replaced by calls to either > make_unibyte_string or make_multibyte_string. I presume you think the same about build_string, then. By sheer luck (or maybe something else), this is exactly what I've been doing in every case where it mattered for the non-ASCII build. (The job is almost done, btw, I'm in final testing.)
