#13898: [32719] introduces circular dependency

----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
[32719] adds ncurses as a dependency of gettext. Unfortunately, gettext is
part of the ncurses dependency tree, which means anybody attempting to
install ncurses today without gettext already installed will fail out due
to the circular reference.
I suspect the correct order of installation is ncurses, gettext, ncursesw
(given that ncursesw is listed as a runtime dependency of ncurses), but I
don't actually know, and anyway MacPorts doesn't support that sort of
thing.
I would suggest that, for the time being, [32719] should be reverted.
