Use of 8th bit in UNIX System

[G.L.Lindgren]

I am in the process writing requirements for the "internationalization"
of the UNIX System.  One of the key ingredients in this effort is support
for full 8-bit byte streams throughout the UNIX System.  As many of you
know, there are many areas in UNIX that take advantage of the 8th bit for
local processing.  For example, the shell uses the 8th bit for keeping 
track of quoting.

*************************** I NEED YOUR HELP! ***************************

I need to prepare a list of all the places in UNIX (e.g., drivers, library
routines, utilities, etc) that use the 8th bit.  I would also appreciate
any suggestions on how these places can be changed to not use the 8th bit.
If you have any information that might be helpful to me in preparing this
list, I'd appreciate it.
