These are rather cheap to add. These variables are specified in the "X
Toolkit Intrinsics".

Xutf8* function are discussed in LSB Bugzilla:
http://bugs.linuxbase.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1647
One of the problems with them is that these are extensions introduced by
XFree and there is no good documentation for them to be referenced.

Though this might look strange, these functions are official API of the
long-forgotten 'Editres' protocol. The functions and the protocol itself
are described in the X11/Xmu/EditresP.h header.
