Hey Nicholas!

NB> It's hard to believe FMail (FConfig, specifically) needs ncurses
NB> 6.5

It doesn't.  It is a path issue on Benny's system as fmail is looking to lib instead of lib64.  I tested the git source on a gcc-13.2.0/glibc-2.39 system (pure 64 bit) and it has no issue with ncurses-6.4.  I don't have a lib64 since everthing is 64 bit installed to lib.  No 32 bit systems to bother with a multilib installation which simplifies everything worthwhile.

Life is good,
Maurice
