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 20130126
  + further fixes to mvcur to pass callback function (cf: 20130112),
    needed to make test/dots_mvcur work.
  + reduce calls to SetConsoleActiveScreenBuffer in win_driver.c, to
    help reduce flicker.
  + modify configure script to omit "+b" from linker options for very
    old HP-UX systems (report by Dennis Grevenstein)
  + add HP-UX workaround for missing EILSEQ on old HP-UX systems (patch
    by Dennis Grevenstein).
  + restore memmove/strdup support for antique systems (request by
    Dennis Grevenstein).
  + change %l behavior in tparm to push the string length onto the stack
    rather than saving the formatted length into the output buffer
    (report by Roy Marples, cf: 980620).
- Add ncurses patch 20130202
  + correct initialization in knight.c which let it occasionally make
    an incorrect move (cf: 20001028).
  + improve documentation of the terminfo/termcap search path.
- Add ncurses patch 20130209
  + modify test/configure script to make it simpler to override names
    of curses-related libraries, to help with linking with pdcurses in
    mingw environment.
  + if the --with-terminfo-dirs configure option is not used, there is
    no corresponding compiled-in value for that.  Fill in "no default
    value" for that part of the manpage substitution.
- Add ncurses patch 20130216
  + modify test/testcurs.c to work with mouse for ncurses as it does for
    pdcurses.
  + modify test/knight.c to work with mouse for pdcurses as it does for
    ncurses.

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.
