Hi,
It is actually not a C++ problem, but a C problem.
This is caused by GCC 15 using C23 and that breaks ncurses configure test
for stdbool.h, which then makes other things go awry.

You can fix it with:
FORCE_C_STD=            gnu99


Thanks for the explanation!

I didn't commit it because I wanted to see if the upstream was going to do
anything about this, but looks like no new release yet.

I committed it now. There has been a fix in ncurses snapshots some timeago, so it should be in the next release from upstream.
