Why does the pathname say "ncurses-5.4"?

I don't see any -l options such as -lncurses.

I do see a -R option (and assuming that's ncurses 5.6, the --enable-rpath
"should" work - the only post-5.6 issue was dealing with installing properly,
and is fixed in the rollup patch).

But a missing -l option makes it seem as if some environment variable
is overriding the configure script's choices.  The config.log and config.status
files tell more of the story.
