the "NO_TTYTYPE" is obsolete (I removed it from last week's development version)

on Linux I see ttytype declared in ncurses.h, curses.h (bsd44) and term.h
(ncurses) so I assume that's expected to live in curses.h (but curses.h isn't
included with slang).

on second thought - this looks like (a mess actually) when I see that the
line 636 is ifdef'd (in my version) with HAVE_TTYTYPE, which is only defined
if curses (or ncurses) was configured.  Perhaps he tried configuring with
curses, and then slang w/o deleting the config.cache file, or doing a make
distclean?
