sys_errlist is redefined in a few of the TeX source files. I just
commented it out of there rather than mucking with the system
headers. My /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/Xlib.h has a comment prior
to the definition of wchar_t
/* replace this with a #include or typedef appropriate for your system */
Sounds like useful advice to me!!
