Windows has similar functions with leading underscores. Previously, we provided the rename via a macro in win32_port.h. In fact its functions are not always good replacements for the Unix functions, since they can't deal with UTF-8. They are only currently used by pg_locale.c, which is careful to redirect to other Windows routines for UTF-8. Given that portability hazard, it seem unlikely to be a good idea to encourage any other code to think of these functions as being available outside pg_locale.c. Any code that thinks it wants these functions probably wants our wchar2char() or char2wchar() routines instead, or it won't actually work on Windows in UTF-8 databases. Furthermore, some major libc implementations including glibc don't have them (they only have the standard variants without _l), so external code is very unlikely to require them to exist.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
