Nothing particular, -fshort-wchar is dictated by some compatibility
requirements, which are probably caused by building things on Windows,
where sizeof(wchar_t) usually equals to 2.  Maybe the flag will go away
later, if not, will try using uchar.h in case there will be a need, thanks
for the pointer.
