Comment (by master at iaas.msu.ru):

 Dear Ryan,

 here is the test port you wanted,
 but really in boils down to
 a program with
  #include <curses.h> /* as per ncurses(3) */
 and compiled as
 cc -o progname -I/opt/local/include -L/opt/local/lib -lcurses progname.c

 uses system header files and libraries.

 Comment:
 (Although ncurses(3) says one must link with -lncurses,
  in personal communication author of ncurses states that

 #include <curses.h>

 -lcurses

 (but the non-ideal world has different implementations and versions of
 curses)
 =====
 Also "The Single UNIX ® Specification" says -lcurses ;)
