with
   --with-versioned-syms
   --with-hashed-db
I see

[   25s] ../lib/libtic.so: undefined reference to `_nc_db_put'
[   25s] collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
[   25s] Makefile:275: recipe for target 'infocmp' failed
[   25s] make: *** [infocmp] Error 1
[   25s] make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

and indeed the symbols

                _nc_db_get;
                _nc_db_have_index;
                _nc_db_put;
                _nc_hashed_db;

are local
