yes - someone has to provide a patch to make the python and ncurses
ports either work together, or ignore each other.  The top-level
setup.py appears to have all (or most) of the related information:  it
sets up a search list of library directories, walks through them to find
the given libraries.

I'm not sure how (reading the earlier email) python decides to get
libtinfo, though, since that string doesn't appear in the original
python sources.
