I am on 1.5_ALPHA2/i386.  USE_CURSES is not my concern.  All the
errors I had is because HAVE_TRUE_NCURSES is not defined in the
source files even though I specified it in the Makefile under
misc/dialog (See error messages below).  Maybe your system has
different n/curse settings. I got ncurses-5.1 installed.

Of course, I didnt do 'make' under the work directory.  In fact, I
just did it again. it gives the same errors as shown below.
HAVE_TRUE_NCURSES does not even show up in the Makefile under work
directory.
