possible typo in ncurses manpage

Hello, I hope I have the correct email address to report this:

on my system with the latest version of ncurses installed (according to Gentoo it is ncurses 5.4-r1) there appears to be a typo in the ncurses manpage:

in the Routine Name Index table near the beginning of the manpage, listed is "getcchar curs_getcchar(3X)"

When I go to compile a program attempting to use this routine, I am told that it does not exist. However, when I go to use "getchar" (getcchar without the extra 'c') it works perfectly.

Thank you for your time (this is my first bug-report of any sort, so I apologize if I did not follow proper protocol)
