Yes this is what I was asking about originally and yes we should use
them internaly but the problem is wine/tools programs cant link to
ntdll or msvcrt wc* functions because they are needed to build wine. A
header file that converts libwine_unicode functions to the native wc*
functions should be enough for the most part. Sorta like the
RtlHeapAlloc->HeapAlloc wrapping that we see in kernel32. 

Thanks
