Summary: configure does not support detection of (n)cursesw
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.8
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org
        ReportedBy: michael@liebenowstudios.com

Proposed fix for configure script - not well tested
Some systems only provide wide character versions of the curses libraries. 
This is the default on LFS and a few others. The built in AC macros are
correctly detecting the curses header files but the WINE_CHECK_SONAME macro
misses the actual libs.
On my system I fixed configure.ac the behavoir as shown in the attached diff
and then ran autoconf
I don't know if this is clean or would break detection of non-wide libraries. 
The error stating that curses functionality will be disabled is no longer in my
configure logs but I don't know if I actually have curses support now.
