gmake[4]: *** [Makefile:9708: test-wchar-c++.o] Error 1
The reason is that on Solaris OpenIndiana, in C++ mode, the system's <wchar.h>
defines std::wcsnrtombs but not ::wcsnrtombs. (A 'using std::wcsnrtombs;'
statement is missing.) This workaround fixes the problem. I'm not using an
autoconf test here, because the Autoconf tests are executed with the C compiler
whereas the problem is with the C++ mode.

Fix compilation error in C++ mode on Solaris 11 OpenIndiana.
* lib/wchar.in.h (wcsnrtombs): Force declaration in C++ mode on Solaris.
* doc/posix-functions/wcsnrtombs.texi: Mention the issue.
