You don't need a lot of the 'special' libraries on Darwin; they're
included in the "system framework". It's a convenience, unless you're
porting existing makefiles.
In your case, just remove the '-ltermcap' definition so it isn't
included. A lot of the "expected" library specs have been 'no-op'd in
Darwin's version of 'cc/ld', but I guess this isn't one of them.
