The question I have is not directly related to Jim's, but to building/
linking with ncursesw on NetBSD 1.6.
                    ^
What are the correct CPPFLAGS and LIBS (or LDFLAGS) environment variables
when ncurses-5.4 is built with the following configure options?
  --prefix=/usr/local
  --disable-overwrite
  --enable-widec
  --without-curses-h

Would I be better off not using that last option, "--without-curses-h"?

Haven't gotten to Lynx yet, but nvi is giving me trouble with:
  CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include/ncursesw"
  LIBS="-L/usr/local/lib -lncursesw"
Should CPPFLAGS simply point to "/usr/local/include", (and therefore it's
possible to omit the path to header files)?

Specifically, at line 42 of "/usr/local/include/ncursesw/termcap.h"
there is "#include <ncursesw/ncurses_dll.h>".  Shouldn't that be:
"#include <ncurses_dll.h>" since we're already in "ncursesw/"?

Many thanks.

P.S.  Was lucky: the business office threats of closing down my mail
on Wednesday turned out to be empty.  Still, the days are limited; just
don't know when.
