Comment:

 But Anders, are you on Leopard or Tiger?

 I never had a problem installing ncursesw on Tiger (without gawk
 installed), but a friend trying to install it on Leopard 10.5.1 just now
 encountered the error reported in this ticket. "`sudo port install gawk`"
 got him past it. I say ncursesw needs to depend on gawk, at least in a
 `platform darwin 9` section. Or if you can figure out how to get ncursesw
 to find Leopard's awk, that'd be great too. But "`which awk`" shows
 "`/usr/bin/awk`" as one would expect so I don't know what's up.
