I added a dependency on libncursesw5-shlibs (>= 5.4-20041023-1006),  
and builddepends on ibncursesw5 (>= 5.4-20041023-1006).

I've tried ConfigureParams of:

--enable-curses=ncurses

--enable-curses=ncursesw

--enable-curses='${prefix}/lib/libncursesw.a'

--enable-curses='${prefix}/lib/libncursesw.a' --enable-curses- 
include='${prefix}/include/ncursesw/curses.h'

--enable-curses='/sw/lib/libncursesw.a' --enable-curses-include='/sw/ 
include/ncursesw/curses.h' #just to ensure that there was no problem  
expanding the prefix

--enable-curses='${prefix}/lib/libncursesw.a' --enable-curses- 
include='${prefix}/include/ncursesw'

--enable-curses='-L${prefix}/lib -lncurses' --enable-curses-include='$ 
{prefix}/include/ncursesw'

--enable-curses='-L${prefix}/lib -lncursesw' --enable-curses- 
include='${prefix}/include/ncursesw'

--enable-curses --enable-curses-include='${prefix}/include/ncursesw'

--enable-curses

None of the above has worked.
