I can reproduce it, and it seems to be the same issue as:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2014-10/msg00000.html
which I originally encountered on Solaris 11.
(It's curious that you could work it around by installing European
localization, while the test checks the mbrtowc behavior under Japanese
locale.)

Perhaps it would be good to replace mbrtowc on Solaris, though I have no
idea how to detect the wrong behavior without depending on particular
locale data.  Alternatively, we could simply ignore this test failure on
Solaris, since the tested calling convention is not very common.

Thoughts?
