Thanks Ken,

That's the source of the symptom indeed!

The package ncurses is pre-auto-tooled in that it appears to have 
everything setup so that configure reconfigs everything and generates 
the expected outputs.

Now should I patch /usr/bin/libtool, libtoolize the sources, 
cygautoreconf, or upgrade libtool?
Anyone have any ideas for the best approach?
Or just go for it and try each in turn in case something works?
