/***
*wchar_t *wcsncat(front, back, count) - append count chars of back onto front
*
*Purpose:
*       Appends at most count characters of the string back onto the
*       end of front, and ALWAYS terminates with a null character.
*       If count is greater than the length of back, the length of back
*       is used instead.  (Unlike wcsncpy, this routine does not pad out
*       to count characters).
*
*Entry:
*       wchar_t *front - string to append onto
*       wchar_t *back - string to append
*       size_t count - count of max characters to append
*
*Exit:
*       returns a pointer to string appended onto (front).
*
*Uses:
*
*Exceptions:
