Python 2 has a surprising ABI. The function names depending on the Unicode implementation:
PyUnicodeUCS2_FromWideChar on Windows, PyUnicodeUCS4_FromWideChar on other platforms.
Enjoy the ugly https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/2.7/Include/unicodeobject.h
And say hello to the new compact Unicode strings, PEP 393, implemented in Python 3.3, which unified that!
