Summary0001943: Usage of "multibyte" vs "multi-byte" in the standard text
DescriptionThe standard talks about the "Multibyte extension", but otherwise always uses the term "multi-byte".
Except for ftell()/ftello(), where "multibyte representation" is used.

Remarsks: for context, in the Unix manual page world these terms are used intermixed practically all over the place (especially GNU/Linux; BSD*s mostly go "multibyte").
Desired ActionIf uniformity is desired, the single "multibyte" in the RATIONALE of ftell()/ftello() should be changed to "multi-byte".
