It was my foobar, sorry. Caused by my installing something
which needed ncurses, and the stupid ncurses wants to
replace libcurses (even just as a symlink in /usr/local/lib).
And I got caught out thinking that /usr/lib would take
precedence over /usr/local/lib (doh!)

Although I have had problems getting lint to compile with the
new /usr/include/sys/stat.h file. It seemed to be barfing on
the new stuff:

int     stat __P((const char *, struct stat *)) __RENAME(__stat13);
int     fstat __P((int, struct stat *))         __RENAME(__fstat13);

I blew away my sup files and am retrieving the entire tree
again just to make sure its not just me. I wish sup was
slightly better about handling file synch :-(
