You need an updated version of ncurses, which fixes the
gratuitous conflict. This is happening often enough that
I really should add a test for this to the build system...
Anyway, you need a version of ncurses subsequent to this
patch being applied.

For example libncurses5, 5.2.20020112a-8 from Debian stable
works just fine. The latest from gnu.org
http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/ncurses/ncurses-5.3.tar.gz
should also work fine. I wish there were some other way to make
the new config system work, but using bool is a correct thing for
the config system to do, and old versions of ncurses.h are
clearly broken since they do not use stdbool.h...
