# SYNOPSIS
#
#   VL_DECL_WCHAR_MAX
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   Checks whether the system headers define WCHAR_MAX or not. If it is
#   already defined, does nothing. Otherwise checks the size and signedness
#   of `wchar_t', and defines WCHAR_MAX to the maximum value that can be
#   stored in a variable of type `wchar_t'.
