lynx-dev configure problem with 2.8.5 on SunOS 5.9

[Webmaster Jim]

I'm trying to build the recent release on a Sun box, and getting errors
with the curses configuration. As far as I can tell, the box only has
"old" curses, but the makefiles being generated are trying to use
ncurses.

I ran:
./configure --with-screen=curses --disable-finger --disable-gopher 
--disable-dired --disable-trace

This ends up in the makefile:

/jes> grep ncurses makefile
LIBS            = -lncurses  -lnsl -lsocket

So the compile does not succeed:

====
...
cd src && make all CC="gcc" \
    CFLAGS="-O2" \
    CPPFLAGS="-D__EXTENSIONS__" \
    LIBS="-lncurses  -lnsl -lsocket   " \
    SITE_DEFS="" \
    WWWINC=WWW/Library/Implementation \
    WWWLIB="../WWW/Library/Implementation/libwww.a"
Compiling Lynx sources
cd chrtrans && make \
    SITE_DEFS="" \
    CFLAGS="-O2" \
    CPPFLAGS="-D__EXTENSIONS__" \
    CC="gcc" tables

-I../../src/chrtrans  -I../../WWW/Library/Implementation  -I../../    -O2 -c 
./makeuctb.c
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H  -D__EXTENSIONS__  -I../..  -I../../src  
-I../../src/chrtrans  -I../../WWW/Library/Implementation  -I../../    -O2  -o 
makeuctb makeuctb.o  -lncurses  -lnsl -lsocket
./makeuctb ./cp1250_uni.tbl cp1250_uni.h
ld.so.1: ./makeuctb: fatal: libncurses.so.5: open failed: No such file or 
directory
*** Signal 9
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `cp1250_uni.h'

What's the easiest way around this?
