BUG: zsh-devel should be linked against ncurses from MacPorts

Description

The ncurses library from Mac OS X does not look at user-defined terminals (in $HOME/.terminfo). The ncurses library from MacPorts is OK and more recent. For this reason (but also as discussed in the past), zsh should linked against libraries provided by MacPorts. One problem is that the MacPorts ncurses does not provide curses compatibility links (unlike the Mac OS X ncurses). So, the ncurses include directory should be added to the include search path, and the configure script should be patched to look for the ncurses library first (before curses). I'm going to attach the Portfile and a patch.
