Yes, I know that I can use 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/freeware/lib', as a workaround.
But it feels like the wrong cure, because
* I didn't specify to link with libgcc_s, only with libncurses, and I didn't
use gcc.
* libncurses.a is symlinked into /usr/lib, where xlc will find it. What was
the intent of this symlink? Apparently that compilations with xlc that use
-lncurses succeed. But when such compilations produce dysfunctional
programs, that goal has not been 100% achieved, IMHO.
