Yes, it is the expected behavior without -*-fallback-curses option.
Even if system have no curses library, fallback-curses option will be
disabled automatically and fine to build.

If you must want to force fallback-curses feature,
--enable-fallback-curses option should be defined.

If you don't want hidden dependency on system ncurses library,
--disable-fallback-curses option should be defined.

I feel with current configure option, it is not saying any of above meanings.
