    //  ----- character encoding conversions -----

    //  Following the principle of least astonishment, path input arguments
    //  passed to or obtained from the operating system via objects of
    //  class path behave as if they were directly passed to or
    //  obtained from the O/S API, unless conversion is explicitly requested.
    //
    //  POSIX specfies that path strings are passed unchanged to and from the
    //  API. Note that this is different from the POSIX command line utilities,
    //  which convert according to a locale.
    //
    //  Thus for POSIX, char strings do not undergo conversion.  wchar_t strings
    //  are converted to/from char using the path locale or, if a conversion
    //  argument is given, using a conversion object modeled on
    //  std::wstring_convert.
    //
    //  The path locale, which is global to the thread, can be changed by the
    //  imbue() function. It is initialized to an implementation defined locale.
    //  
    //  For Windows, wchar_t strings do not undergo conversion. char strings
    //  are converted using the "ANSI" or "OEM" code pages, as determined by
    //  the AreFileApisANSI() function, or, if a conversion argument is given,
    //  using a conversion object modeled on std::wstring_convert.
    //
    //  See m_pathname comments for further important rationale.

    //  TODO: rules needed for operating systems that use / or .
    //  differently, or format directory paths differently from file paths. 
    //
    //  **********************************************************************************
    //
    //  More work needed: How to handle an operating system that may have
    //  slash characters or dot characters in valid filenames, either because
    //  it doesn't follow the POSIX standard, or because it allows MBCS
    //  filename encodings that may contain slash or dot characters. For
    //  example, ISO/IEC 2022 (JIS) encoding which allows switching to
    //  JIS x0208-1983 encoding. A valid filename in this set of encodings is
    //  0x1B 0x24 0x42 [switch to X0208-1983] 0x24 0x2F [U+304F Kiragana letter KU]
    //                                             ^^^^
    //  Note that 0x2F is the ASCII slash character
    //
    //  **********************************************************************************

    //  Supported source arguments: half-open iterator range, container, c-array,
    //  and single pointer to null terminated string.

    //  All source arguments except pointers to null terminated byte strings support
    //  multi-byte character strings which may have embedded nulls. Embedded null
    //  support is required for some Asian languages on Windows.

    //  [defaults] "const codecvt_type& cvt=codecvt()" default arguments are not used
    //  because some compilers, such as Microsoft prior to VC++ 10, do not handle defaults
    //  correctly in templates.
