Undefined symbols in diffutils-2.8.2 on Solaris 5.5.1

[Vin Shelton]

I downloaded diffutils-2.8.2 and attempted to build it on my Solaris
5.5.1 system.  I got the following undefined symbols:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../../../src/diffutils-2.8.2/src -I..  -I../lib 
-I../../../../src/diffutils-2.8.2/lib   -g -O2 -c `test -f 
'../../../../src/diffutils-2.8.2/src/util.c' || echo 
'../../../../src/diffutils-2.8.2/src/'`../../../../src/diffutils-2.8.2/src/util.c
gcc  -g -O2   -o diff  analyze.o context.o diff.o dir.o ed.o ifdef.o io.o 
normal.o side.o util.o version.o ../lib/libdiffutils.a  -lposix4

iswctype                            ../lib/libdiffutils.a(fnmatch.o)

Here is the configutaion info from config.status:

GNU diffutils config.status 2.8.2
configured by ../../../src/diffutils-2.8.2/configure, generated by GNU Autoconf 
2.53,
  with options \"'--prefix=/u/shelton2/software/SunOS-5.5' '--disable-nls' 
'CC=gcc'\"

Adding the library '-lw' to the link line resolves wctype and
iswctype, but I can not find btowc in the system libraries.  There is
a function, mbtowc, in libc, however.
