There's dozens of packages in the distribution that use ncurses.  Just look
at the setup.ini file in the directory you downloaded your packages to and
you can find them.

Don't worry about the messages.  They are "information".  It's just to let
you know that the symbols weren't explicitly exported from the DLL but the
linker found them and used them anyway.  It's a convenience feature to make
it easier to port stuff to Windows.  While it's possible that this is somehow
related to the problem you're seeing with your program, it's pretty unlikely
that it's the cause.
