NAME
       MB_LEN_MAX - maximum multibyte length of a character across all locales

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
       The MB_LEN_MAX macro is the upper bound for the number of bytes	needed
       to represent a single wide character, across all locales.

RETURN VALUE
       A constant integer greater than zero.

CONFORMING TO
       C99, POSIX.1-2001.

NOTES
