Yes, this is expected.

Ah!
So are you getting the following message?
“
configure test passed without -Werror but failed with -Werror.
This is probably a bug in the configure script. The failing command
will be at the bottom of config.log.
You can run configure with --disable-werror to bypass this check.
”
If so, you should really have said it, I was really wondering how
configure could just stopping in your case. That does explain things
indeed.
Could you try the attached patch? It should be able to really fail
without Werror too.

Actually it is: in your case it's the second config which will work, the
third one will fail. Not breaking would mean we keep the failing one.

Fix cursesw detection
On systems which do not provide ncursesw.pc and whose /usr/include/curses.h
does not include wide support, we should not only try with no -I, i.e.
/usr/include, but also with -I/usr/include/ncursesw.
To properly detect for wide support with and without -Werror, we need to
check for the presence of e.g. the WACS_DEGREE macro.
We also want to stop at the first curses_inc_list configuration which works.
