   I'm not going to include wcwidth in libreadline.  It's not appropriate
   for libraries to be conditionally including C library functions -- it
   just causes problems down the line.  That's what the calling
   application should be doing. 

Thanks!  Yes, that makes sense.  I'll see if I can get rid of this
local fix in the GDB repository by adding some hackery to the GDB
configure script instead.
