Re: findutils-4.2.26 build error on HP-UX 10.20

[Peter Fales]

The error message occurs while building gnulib/lib (as part of
findutils-4.2.26):

$ make
make  all-am
make[1]: Entering directory 
build/output/expmake/build/gnucoresrc/build/findutils/gnulib/lib'
/opt/exp/gnu/bin/gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../..     -O -c mbchar.c
In file included from mbchar.c:24:
mbchar.h:160:20: wctype.h: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [mbchar.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory 
build/output/expmake/build/gnucoresrc/build/findutils/gnulib/lib'
make: *** [all] Error 2
$

Adding the patch from my previous mail (to simply not include the
missing wctype.h) allows findutils to build to completion.
