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 tack patch 1.07.20120303 
  + fix many compilerv warnings
  + update auto configure
  + update copyright date
  + Update configure-script and makefile template to work with this
    post-5.9 change, allowing build of tack within the ncurses
    source-tree 20110924.  The change is prompted by review of
    OpenSUSE package by Werner Fink, using a patch from the rpm
    source file: ncurses-5.9-tack-tinfo.dif (2011-11-18)

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120303  
  + minor tidying of terminfo.tail, clarify reason for limitation
    regarding mapping of \0 to \200
  + minor improvement to _nc_copy_termtype(), using memcpy to replace
    loops.
  + fix no-leaks checking in test/demo_termcap.c to account for multiple
    calls to setupterm().
  + modified the libgpm change to show previous load as a problem in the
    debug-trace.
  > merge some patches from OpenSUSE rpm (Werner Fink):
  + ncurses-5.7-printw.dif, fixes for varargs handling in lib_printw.c
  + ncurses-5.7-gpm.dif, do not dlopen libgpm if already loaded by
    runtime linker
  + ncurses-5.6-fallback.dif, do not free arrays and strings from static
    fallback entries

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120228
  + fix breakage in tic/infocmp from 20120225 (report by Werner Fink).

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.
