Having said this, I think that there is also a behavior of the libncurses5 build script involved here that might be called buggy or at least somewhat careless: It sets the environment variable DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to the build directory which causes /bin/sh to load the newly built libncurses.5.dylib instead of its own one from /usr/lib which which it was originally linked.

DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH was originally added to the build script for ncurses because ncurses kept finding the wrong library during the build, and this forces it to use the newly built one.


Now, I will admit that I didn't test on this occasion whether that is still a problem or not (i.e., I did not remove DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to see what happened), I just assumed that the problem would still exist.
