Comment (by ryandesign at macports.org):

 This sounds fine in theory, I'd like to see an actual port that
 demonstrates the problem. A port which, with the *curses* ports the way
 they are, visibly links against the system's libraries (visible with
 `otool -L` I suppose) but links with MacPorts libraries using your new
 port, or your patches. Preferably your example port would be small and not
 have many other dependencies. I don't mean you need to create an example
 port; I mean, presumably you were originally trying to install some other
 software and you noticed it linked against the wrong curses libraries.
 What was that other software?
