=head1 NAME

ExtUtils::Constant::Utils - helper functions for ExtUtils::Constant

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use ExtUtils::Constant::Utils qw (C_stringify);
    $C_code = C_stringify $stuff;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

ExtUtils::Constant::Utils packages up utility subroutines used by
ExtUtils::Constant, ExtUtils::Constant::Base and derived classes. All its
functions are explicitly exportable.

=head1 USAGE

=over 4

=item C_stringify NAME

A function which returns a 7 bit ASCII correctly \ escaped version of the
string passed suitable for C's "" or ''. It will die if passed Unicode
characters.

  # be utf8, which includes my 8 bit test cases.
