Confirmed:
Before today, with the tables uninstalled I saw this, with subsequent test
failures during 'make check':
checking for a traditional japanese locale... (cached) ja_JP.eucJP
checking whether mbrtowc has a correct return value... no
With today's patch to cygwin [1], and the tables uninstalled, I see this, with
previous failures now treated as skip during 'make check':
checking for a traditional japanese locale... (cached) none
checking whether mbrtowc has a correct return value... guessing yes
And with the tables installed (with or without today's cygwin patch), I see
this, with new 'pass' during 'make check:
checking for a traditional japanese locale... (cached) ja_JP.eucJP
checking whether mbrtowc has a correct return value... yes
