 When I build cmake-bootstrap in trace mode on macOS 12, there are whole
 lot of things that it is looking for and might use if trace mode were off:

 I'm surprised it's doing this. We're using the `--no-system-libs`
 configure flag which is defined as "use all cmake-provided third-party
 libraries".

 There are no ncurses files among the above but I wanted to see if ncurses
 files would be found if I added the pkgconfig port to depends_build, but
 even when I did this, trace mode hid the pkg-config program; I'm not sure
 why it did that.
