mc @4.8.19 +ncurses: build fails with ncurses 6

Description
The latest version 4.8.19 (the ncurses variant) can't be built against ncurses 6.x. The problem is solved upstream, but it seems the maintainer of that port hasn't seen it yet.
The solution: lib/tty/tty-ncurses.c should be patched against the latest upstream version of that file in order the variant to be built with ncurses 6.0 and later.
Obviously, that problem won't be present in the future versions.

If failed build is not High priority, then what it is?
I've already prepared the patch here:

All it take is to be added to the files subdir and the Portfile.

Replying to philippetev:

We have thousands of open tickets, many of which are build failures. Why is this build failure higher priority than any of those? The Macports team will decide what is High priority. Usually it is based on the number of users and ports affected.

Can you please attach the patch to this ticket? External hosters are known not to keep files reliable for long time archiving and are not accessible for everyone (think of corporate firewalls).
