This does appear to be the case...I built Bash 3.2 without the upstream 
patch, and used it to try compiling ncurses...it does indeed fail with 
that error. If I attempt to compile ncurses using /bin/bash, which was 
built with the patch, it works fine, so it seems the problem has been 
fixed with the upstream patch. I guess "Galaxy Travel" simply forgot to 
apply the patch.
