      If the wchar_t is usable on a system we get the following:

      checking for UCS-4 tcl... no
      checking whether wchar_t is signed... no
      yes
      checking whether byte ordering is bigendian... yes
      checking ABIFLAGS... dm
      checking SOABI... cpython-38dm

      Yes -- that is a simple 'yes'. Dangling.

      A PR is in preparation.

      The message is a bit more descriptive if wchar_t isn't usable:

      checking whether wchar_t is signed... yes
      no usable wchar_t found

      I'm not sure if it's worth to backport to 3.6, but it's a nice improvement for 3.7 and master branches. Also, it simplifies the checking for wchar_t a bit, which is good.
