The #undef is redundant, since it's about to happen anyway.

Why is HAVE_WCWIDTH defined? As I understand it, wcwidth is merely a macro in kLIBC, not a function, so HAVE_WCWIDTH shouldn't be 1.

Put the comment first, and then the code. The code change should be pretty simple; all you need to do is replace the existing '#if HAVE_WCWIDTH' with '#if HAVE_WCWIDTH && !defined __KLIBC__'.
