This looks like a autoconf bug (./configure is normally created by autoconf)
.
You should check whether this wchar_t configure computation is part of the
standard autoconf macro's or a Python-project specific autoconf macro.

Then fix the problem and supply a patch to the right community.

You may want to subscribe to some autoconf mailing list
