In what way is this a bug in R? It looks like a bug in the package, and
as Defn.h is not part of R's API any packge using it is `at risk' (and
cannot be installed in a binary-only installation, or even an installed
version of R).
In particular, Defn,.h depends on config.h, and it seems you installed a
binary version of R and used separate sources. I would suggest building
R from the sources, and then seeing if you can install your package into
the build tree.
mbstate_t will be defined in wchar.h, and if configure is working
correctly that will be included by Defn.h. (And we have heard no reports
to the contrary.)
