Hi folks, me again...

I'm trying to build 'less 3.32' with gnuwin32-b18, I installed ncurses 
1.9.9g, but it looks like the 'less' configure script cannot find 
libncurses.a
By default libncurses.a was in /usr/local/lib, I copied it to /usr/lib just 
to make sure, but it doesn't help.
Sorry for all these dumb questions, I didn't find anything in the faqs ! 
Thanks.

Jerome
