    AX_WITH_CURSES: major re-write
    
    I re-wrote the AX_WITH_CURSES macro, and added the macros 
AX_WITH_CURSES_PANEL,
    AX_WITH_CURSES_MENU, and AX_WITH_CURSES_FORM for the following reasons:
    
     - The checks are far more rigorous and now work with many more systems. In
       particular, Debian Sid, Debian 6.0 (Squeeze), Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty), 
Ubuntu
       10.04 (Lucid), Fedora 15, FreeBSD 8.2 and Cygwin have all been confirmed 
as
       working.
    
     - The old version required Ncurses to be present even when linking with
       NcursesW. This has been fixed.
    
     - Multiple header filenames are checked for each library as these seem to 
be
       different in every system. The old version did not do these checks and 
hence
       failed on many systems (eg, FreeBSD and Cygwin).
    
     - A number of feature checks have been added: X/Open Enhanced functionality
       checks, colour function checks, obsolete function checks, etc.
    
     - The additional macros check for auxiliary libraries associated with 
Curses:
       Panel, Menu and Form, again with checks against NcursesW, Ncurses and 
plain
       Curses.
    
     - Extensive documentation has been added, particularly useful for the 
beginner
       (ie, exactly what needs to be put where for a working Curses check).
