... given that `bootstrap' is a ready-to-run script from `gnulib',
this should probably discussed with the gnulib people.

This is OK. What you see here is a list of include files to be used
in the source code for the requested gnulib modules (see variable
`gnulib_modules' in file `bootstrap.conf'). In particular, `wchar.h'
is needed for `wcwidth'.
It's *not* related to what you have on your harddisk.
