Current code
        if (uvalue <= UCHAR_MAX)
          *cp = uvalue;
        else
          {
            temp = u32cconv (uvalue, cp);
            cp[temp] = '\0';
            if (lenp)
              *lenp = temp;
          }

Robust Code
            temp = u32cconv (uvalue, cp);
            cp[temp] = '\0';
            if (lenp)
              *lenp = temp;

Compromise solution
        if (uvalue <= 0x7f)
          *cp = uvalue;
        else
          {
            temp = u32cconv (uvalue, cp);
            cp[temp] = '\0';
            if (lenp)
              *lenp = temp;
          }

How can doing a direct assignment, in less cases break anything, if it
does u32cconv is broken.

And it does work for me, so impossible seems to be overstating it.
