I'm trying to compile newlib to implement the wide character functions
in newlib to deal with 16-bit unicode characters. Is there a configure
switch I can use for this purpose? Will I need to recompile GCC so I get
16-bit wide chars with L"My string" ?

Thanks,

Use --enable-newlib-mb when you configure newlib. If you want iconv, there are additional enable options which you can read about inside newlib's configure.in. Wide string literals are part of the ANSI standard.
