Oups, I have confused it with another option, but what you are looking for is probably:
-fshort-wchar
Override the underlying type for wchar_t to be short unsigned int instead of the default for the target. This option is useful for building programs to run under WINE.
Warning: the -fshort-wchar switch causes GCC to generate code that is not binary compatible with code generated without that switch. Use it to conform to a non-default application binary interface.

Have you tried to use gcc or g++ option: -fwide-exec-charset=charset ?

What's done in the Wine sources isn't pretty, but it's straightforward
and gets the job done:
const uint16_t myString[] = {'H','e','l','l','o',',','
','W','o','r','l','d','!','\n',0};
After all, that is all that a string literal is, under the covers. :)
Cheers,
Ken
