grep/m4/mbstate_t.m4 was not add and configure.in did not have
the AC_MBSTATE_T call.  2.5e was done in a hurry to fix a bug,
so not all my repository was committed at that point, 2.5f should
have the necessary autoconf magic.

Strange, xstrtol.c seems to have it, I'll take a look at tar/fetish
again and get in sync.

Thanks.
