They come from an existing shared library for ncurses - I'm not developing 
on MacOS, so I can only report secondhand information here. I don't know
whether there's a nice way, e.g., an rpath option that can be added to
$LDFLAGS to make it pick up the "right" library.  So the libncursesw has 
no counterpart, no conflicts.

(I investigated rpath on FreeBSD a while back - perhaps it could be made
to work now).
