While I can understand the technical issues with size_t (which I still think
that should be faced and solved once for all in SIP, instead of having all
the users deal with the troubles), there is a clear and documented mapping
between wchar_t and Python unicode objects, so exposing this mapping by
default would make things easier for SIP users.
