Hi.
Well to begin with it's not my patch :)
Usually ncurses5 + ncursesw5 configs are used when you need ABI
compatibility which isn't our case (and both libraries built side by side).
According to my tests (allyespackageconfig) other than the packages i've
sent fixes for before/with this set it all works smoothly.
Also packages that don't know about widec support usually don't look for
the non-w variant.

As i've said before, not my patch, just fixed the issue.
I went for a followup patch rather than rebase Jeremy's patch in case he
sent a new version, which never happened of course.
Regards.
