Hello
I have a small suggestion regarding the ncurses configure script.
On *-gnu systems it would be nice to have libtool and shared libraries
enabled by default.
packagers can (and usually do) read the installation instructions.
libtool offers no particular advantage, and is much slower to compile than
the --with-shared option (which is what's generally used).
