but what does the output of the configure script look like?  For example,
the related section when I configure:

checking for ispell... /usr/bin/ispell
checking for initscr in -lncurses... yes
checking for ncurses.h... yes
checking for start_color declaration... yes
checking for typeahead declaration... yes
checking for bkgdset declaration... yes
checking for curs_set declaration... yes
checking for meta declaration... yes
checking for use_default_colors declaration... yes
checking for resizeterm declaration... yes
checking for ANSI C header files... yes

(the "use_default_colors" line is needed).
