[1.7] wctomb bug

- Subject: [1.7] wctomb bug
Simple test case. This application uses the C locale (by virtue of the fact
that we did not use setlocale(), and evidenced by mb_cur_max of 1). On Linux,
this correctly shows wctomb rejecting the conversion (0x100 is too big to fit
in a 1-byte sequence) with EILSEQ, but newlib currently truncates the invalid
wchar_t value to int and returns 1.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <wchar.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <limits.h>
int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
wchar_t w = 0x100;
char str[MB_LEN_MAX];
int i = wctomb(str, w);
printf("mb_cur_max %zd, len %d, str[0] 0x%02hhx, errno %d\n",
MB_CUR_MAX, i, str[0], errno);
return 0;
}
