I haven't had any direct responses from Win32 folks. But since this is
GNU code I can examine the source code. I downloaded the source and
grepped:
find . -type f | xargs grep -n ncuses
... and, predictably, got nothing. But if instead grepped for
'-lncurses', I got plenty of hits, many in Makefiles.
