I see what happened.  git (or the process used to create the devel tree)
makes the mod time of all files in the tree the same, so y.tab.c doesn't
get rebuilt from parse.y.  You can fix this with

rm y.tab.?
make

Maybe I will remove y.tab.[ch] from the devel tree, but that introduces a
dependency on bison.

I don't see this.  wcsnwidth.c is present in the tree and (seemingly)
correctly specified in the Makefiles.  The definitions and uses all
depend on HANDLE_MULTIBYTE.
