because there is no standard for the naming (should i provide a list 
of -config scripts to search for ?), they blow at cross-compiling, and for 
ncurses it isnt needed.  it just told me -lncurses ?  great, i knew that 
already.  if ncurses actually linked against something, i'd worry about it.  
but it doesnt so i dont.
