The text containing the restriction that *numeric-escape-sequence*s specify
values that "fit" into the "character" type is under a bullet saying "[the]
value of any other kind of *character-literal* is determined as follows"
occuring after "[a] multicharacter literal has an implementation-defined
value". I believe that we want that restriction to also apply in
multicharacter literal cases. Additionally, whether a
numeric-escape-sequence can be "encoded as a single code unit in the
ordinary literal encoding" seems to need the wording from the "other than
multicharacter literal" case.
