+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+The \fIwcstoul\fP() and \fIwcstoull\fP() functions shall convert the
+initial portion of the wide-character string pointed to
+by \fInptr\fP to \fBunsigned long\fP and \fBunsigned long long\fP
+representation, respectively. First, they shall decompose the
+input wide-character string into three parts:
+.IP " 1." 4
+An initial, possibly empty, sequence of white-space wide-character
+codes (as specified by \fIiswspace\fP())
+.LP
+.IP " 2." 4
+A subject sequence interpreted as an integer represented in some radix
+determined by the value of \fIbase\fP
+.LP
+.IP " 3." 4
+A final wide-character string of one or more unrecognized wide-character
+codes, including the terminating null wide-character
+code of the input wide-character string
+.LP
+.LP
+Then they shall attempt to convert the subject sequence to an unsigned
+integer, and return the result.
+.LP
+If \fIbase\fP is 0, the expected form of the subject sequence is that
+of a decimal constant, octal constant, or hexadecimal
+constant, any of which may be preceded by a \fB'+'\fP or \fB'-'\fP
+sign. A decimal constant begins with a non-zero digit, and
+consists of a sequence of decimal digits. An octal constant consists
+of the prefix \fB'0'\fP optionally followed by a sequence
+of the digits \fB'0'\fP to \fB'7'\fP only. A hexadecimal constant
+consists of the prefix 0x or 0X followed by a sequence of
+the decimal digits and letters \fB'a'\fP (or \fB'A'\fP ) to \fB'f'\fP
+(or \fB'F'\fP ) with values 10 to 15
+respectively.
+.LP
+If the value of \fIbase\fP is between 2 and 36, the expected form
+of the subject sequence is a sequence of letters and digits
+representing an integer with the radix specified by \fIbase\fP, optionally
+preceded by a \fB'+'\fP or \fB'-'\fP sign, but
+not including an integer suffix. The letters from \fB'a'\fP (or \fB'A'\fP
+) to \fB'z'\fP (or \fB'Z'\fP ) inclusive are
+ascribed the values 10 to 35; only letters whose ascribed values are
+less than that of \fIbase\fP shall be permitted. If the value
+of \fIbase\fP is 16, the wide-character codes 0x or 0X may optionally
+precede the sequence of letters and digits, following the
+sign if present.
+.LP
+The subject sequence is defined as the longest initial subsequence
+of the input wide-character string, starting with the first
+wide-character code that is not white space and is of the expected
+form. The subject sequence contains no wide-character codes if
+the input wide-character string is empty or consists entirely of white-space
+wide-character codes, or if the first wide-character
+code that is not white space is other than a sign or a permissible
+letter or digit.
+.LP
+If the subject sequence has the expected form and \fIbase\fP is 0,
+the sequence of wide-character codes starting with the first
+digit shall be interpreted as an integer constant. If the subject
+sequence has the expected form and the value of \fIbase\fP is
+between 2 and 36, it shall be used as the base for conversion, ascribing
+to each letter its value as given above. If the subject
+sequence begins with a minus sign, the value resulting from the conversion
+shall be negated. A pointer to the final wide-character
+string shall be stored in the object pointed to by \fIendptr\fP, provided
+that \fIendptr\fP is not a null pointer.
+.LP
+In other than the C or POSIX locales, other
+implementation-defined subject sequences may be accepted.
+.LP
+If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected form,
+no conversion shall be performed; the value of \fInptr\fP
+shall be stored in the object pointed to by \fIendptr\fP, provided
+that \fIendptr\fP is not a null pointer.
+.LP
+The
+\fIwcstoul\fP() function shall not change the setting of \fIerrno\fP
+if successful.
+.LP
+Since 0, {ULONG_MAX}, and {ULLONG_MAX} are returned on error and 0
+is also a valid return on success, an application wishing to
+check for error situations should set \fIerrno\fP to 0, then call
+\fIwcstoul\fP() or \fIwcstoull\fP(), then check \fIerrno\fP.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+.LP
+Upon successful completion, the \fIwcstoul\fP() and \fIwcstoull\fP()
+functions shall return the converted value, if any. If no
+conversion could be performed, 0 shall be returned and \fIerrno\fP
+may be set to indicate the error. If the correct value is outside
+the range of representable values,
+{ULONG_MAX} or {ULLONG_MAX} respectively shall be returned and \fIerrno\fP
+set to [ERANGE].
+.SH ERRORS
+.LP
+These functions shall fail if:
+.TP 7
+.B EINVAL
+The value of \fIbase\fP is not supported.
+.TP 7
+.B ERANGE
+The value to be returned is not representable.
+.sp
+.LP
+These functions may fail if:
+.TP 7
