/usr/lib64/libncursesw.so is just an ascii file :)

/* GNU ld script
  Since Gentoo has critical dynamic libraries in /lib, and the static versions
  in /usr/lib, we need to have a "fake" dynamic lib in /usr/lib, otherwise we
  run into linking problems.  This "fake" dynamic lib is a linker script that
  redirects the linker to the real lib.  And yes, this works in the cross-
  compiling scenario as the sysroot-ed linker will prepend the real path.

  See bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/4411 for more info.
