Ncurses build fine under Windows using mingw-w64 compiler. You can build
nurses-5.9 version but it can be only builded as static libraries or get
develop version of ncurses from here:
http://invisible-island.net/datafiles/current/ncurses.tar.gz
Develop version can be builded as shared libraries.
Configure options you can see here, for example:
