gcc 3.2 string<wchar_t> link problem

[Nigel Stewart & Fiona Smith]

Digging around the gcc.gnu.org site,
came across PR 4764 in the bugs
database:

http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl

------------------------------------

*Description:*        

On Solaris 8, std::wstring is not available, because libstdc++/aclocal.m4
checks for too many functions

The following functions are not available on Solaris. They are
required to enable wide strings in libstdc++, but they aren't used
by the implementation:

vwscanf vfwscanf vswscanf wcstof

Notice that support for these functions is only mandated by ISO C99,
 not by ISO C++.

----------------------

Without being too familiar with gcc build
process, not sure how to resolve this
for Cygwin...

Cheers,

Nigel Stewart
