Hi Eric,

Where would use the "--with-USE_TERMIO directive"?

It looks like things took a turn for the worst. After installing libncurses 5.2, I now get an "Undefined symbols: _winch" error for modules that compiled fine before.  I know that winch is defined in both the Apple provided /usr/include/curses.h and the just installed libncurses 5.2 /usr/local/include/curses.h.

Note the Apple provided /usr/include/curses.h and the libncurses 5.2 /usr/local/include/curses.h are different sizes,  Apples: 13.5kb and libncurses 5.2 is 60.7kb.

I tried "cc -L/usr/include ..." and "cc -L/usr/local/include..." and both attempts reveal the same error.

I am really frustrated, and I don't know what else to but *gasp* re-install my entire system and reinstall all the libraries and sources.  Which I would hate to do because most of beta 9 is now built....
