Total newbie attempting to package tn5250 for Fink.

The 5250 is a terminal for IBM's AS/400 series.
tn5250 is the opensource emulation of this terminal.
  http://tn5250.sourceforge.net


So far I've run into two problems when trying to make, 
which I think are solved. The third one has me stumped.
As I really haven't a clue what I'm doing, 
I may have caused myself further problems.


Problem 1)  semi-solved
compile error
tn5250-private.h:36: header file 'malloc.h' not found

the makefile assumes the header will be in /usr/local/include/
Darwin&BSD store their libraries in /usr/include/sys/

I cheated and made a symbolic link to the BSD location
   #ln -s /usr/include/sys/malloc.h  /usr/local/include/



Problem 2)  semi-solved
compile error
stream.h:30: header file 'openssl/ssl.h' not found

Since openssl is required to compile, I install fink's openssl.
The file still won't compile because it is expecting the file in a 
different location.

I cheat again and make a symbolic link to the Fink location for openssl
   #ln -s /sw/include/openssl  /usr/include/openssl



Problem 3)
compile error
cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -DSYSCONFDIR=\"/sw/etc\" -g -O2 -c 
buffer.c -Wp,-MD,.deps/buffer.TPlo  -fno-common -DPIC -o .libs/buffer.lo
/usr/include/curses.h:107: illegal external declaration, missing `;' 
after `*'
cpp-precomp: warning: errors during smart preprocessing, retrying in 
basic mode
In file included from tn5250-private.h:93,
                 from buffer.c:22:
/usr/include/curses.h:107: parse error before `0x13'
make[2]: *** [buffer.lo] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

Curses.h line 107 is in the middle of a long declaration. But it appears 
to be valid. There is a ; at the end of all the comma separated *xx 
declarations.

Would someone review my work and tell me where I've gone wrong?
Many thanks in advance,

Layne
