New curses Libraries

Edit Package ncurses

As soon as a text application needs to directly control its output to
the screen (if it wants to place the cursor at location (x,y) then
write text), ncurses is used. The panel and the forms libraries are
included in this package. These new libraries support color, special
characters, and panels.

- Add ncurses patch 20181229
  + improve man/curs_mouse.3x with regard to xterm
  + modify tracemunch to accept filename parameters in addition to use
    as a pipe/filter.
  + minor optimization to reduce calls to _nc_reserve_pairs (prompted by
    discussion with Bryan Christ).
  + add test/pair_content.c and test/color_content.c
  + modify infocmp to omit filtering of "OTxx" names which are used for
    obsolete capabilities, when the output is sorted by long-names.
    Doing this helps when making a table of the short/long capability
    names.

- Add ncurses patch 20181215
  + several fixes for gcc8 strict compiler warnings.
  + fix a typo in comments (Aaron Gyes).
  + add nsterm-build309 to replace nsterm-256color, assigning the latter
    as an alias of nsterm, to make mouse work with nsterm-256color -TD
  + base gnome-256color entry on "gnome", not "vte", for consistency -TD
  + updates for configure macros from work on tin and xterm:
    + CF_GNU_SOURCE, allow for Cygwin's newlib when checking for the
      _DEFAULT_SOURCE symbol.
    + CF_VA_COPY, add fallback check if neither va_copy/__va_copy is
      supported, to try copying the pointers for va_list, or as an array.
      Also add another fallback check, for __builtin_va_copy(), which
      could be used with AIX xlc in c89 mode.

- Add ncurses patch 20181208
  + modify wbkgd() and wbkgrnd() to improve compatibility with SVr4
    curses, changing the way the window rendition is updated when the
    background character is modified (report by Valery Ushakov).

Is it possible to retrigger build and republish all the packages that claim to buildrequire ncurses-devel ? PCRE posix is still infecting a sizeable amount of packages and those will likely crash under some circumstances as they expect regcomp from glibc and not from pcre.
