Sure.

To add the appropriate argument to CONFIGURE_ENV or CONFIGURE_ARGS in
the package Makefile would probably be preferred over patching a
generated file. The way this package is structured, it looks like you
would put the argument(s) to configure in WITH_SOUND. It also looks
like there's a typo in the package Makefile: -with-ncurses=no sb
--with-ncurses=no.

In any case, if you can come up with a patch to the package to make it
build, it's my experience that it would be quickly adopted.
