Ah, now I found out that the extern declaration for _wargv is missing in 
stdlib.h.
There is only one for _argv.

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C"{
#endif
#if !defined(__ARGV_DEFINED)
#define __ARGV_DEFINED
     extern int           _RTLENTRY _EXPDATA _argc;
     extern char **       _RTLENTRY _EXPDATA _argv;
#   define __argc        _argc  /* MSC Version */
#   define __argv        _argv  /* MSC Version */
#endif /* __ARGV_DEFINED */
#ifdef __cplusplus
} /* __cplusplus */
#endif

I didn't found an equivalent for _wargv. (I searched in the whole 
include-directory)

If I add:

extern TCHAR** _RTLENTRY _EXPDATA _wargv;

and compile with -WU flag if works perfect.

Can somebody please report this missing declaration to Borland?
