Some programs like U-Boot are compiled with GCC option -fshort-wchar.
In this case wchar_t must be a 16 bit type.

This is not something you can just change with an option. The wchar_t
type is an ABI contract with the library functions that take (or take
pointers to) wchar_t.

Can you explain how this actually comes up in the applications so we
can look into getting them fixed?
