This is an excerpt from config.log?  Do the relevant config.log bits for the
other two affected systems look similar?  If not, please post a full config.log
from running your test case `configure' on each affected system.

It is fishy that the trivial test program does not build, yet the bits of your
project that use mbstate_t do build when you manually hack config.h.  Do you use
mbstate_t in a C file or a C++ file?  Do you include <wchar.h> in that file?
