Previously using GIT-20160119-x86_64-Multilib had to use AWK=gawk in Ncurses-6.0 configure (Chapter 10.34-35) to get past a compilation error.

Found that the kernel menuconfig had no blue highlighting to indicate where I was in bottom menu bar. I do recall that it was also it was crippled in some way in the main menu.

After recompiling Ncurses menueconfig worked properly. The AWK=gawk parameter was not needed to do this second compile.

Do I need to worry that subsequent programs were affected if the were dependent on Ncurses?
