ncurses does not support a proper pkg-config scheme, hence the
difficulty with finding the correct flags. Regarding the wideness of
the library, I would presume that any distro which mismatches
/usr/include/ncurses.h and libncurses.so is in itself broken. Taking
this into consideration, I think that including /usr/include/ncurses.h
and linking against -lncurses should work. We should entirely ignore
the wide version of the library, and use the default installation
provided.

Well, I do not know why, by the check changed the flags for _all_
targets in the scripts/kconfig dir, such that even qconfig got copiled
with -lncursesw. Strange. The change I made in the Makefile in the
previous mail fixes that.

Cheers,
Nir.
