One version (per platform) should be enough. However, preparing
such version needs some care: ATM there are two "major" versions of
ncurses library. Change in major version is deemed incompatible
change, so we have binary incompatiblity. In 'poplog_base'
tarball I include 'corepop' linked without ncurses, so it only
uses compatible libraries. Another things is to build corepop
on oldest supported system: linking on new system tends to
introduce dependence on newer library.
