I fixed the above problem and the POSIX check now works fine:

checking for fnmatch.h... yes
checking for fnmatch... yes
checking for working POSIX fnmatch... yes
I also extraced the fnmatch configure testcase and ran it manually.
It returns 0 now. But:

S["REPLACE_FNMATCH"]="1"
Looks like the reason is that we don't have a uchar.h file? Seems
like this is of interest for AIX, but why should this be of
interest for fnmatch on other systems?
Thanks,
