This issue is much more complicated.  Wide streams and user-provided
buffers are not correctly handled at all in the moment.  The buffer
should be used for the wide buffers, not the buffers for FILE back
streams used to store the result of the conversion.  I have been working
on and off on this.  It'll eventually get fixed, it's just not important
enough to not be interrupted by other work.
