  /* On all known platforms, in all predefined locales, isblank(c) is likely
     equivalent with  (c == ' ' || c == '\t').  Look at the glibc definition
     (in glibc/localedata/locales/i18n): The "blank" characters are '\t', ' ',
     U+1680, U+180E, U+2000..U+2006, U+2008..U+200A, U+205F, U+3000, and none
     except the first two is present in a common 8-bit encoding.  Therefore
     the substitute for other platforms is not more complicated than this.  */
