Yes, I checked that as well. It doesn't matter if the internal or the `s' state is used. The problm is actually in __utf8_mbtowc. It doesn't count a variable correctly which in turn results in reading too much of the input if a the followup sequence of an incomplete sequence is itself an incomplete sequence. My patch sent to the newlib list (http://sourceware.org/ml/newlib/2009/msg00778.html) fixes that.
