Comment (by dhalik):

 Yes, no issue here. We build against ncursesw for lots of programs and
 like I said earlier, if I explicitly define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED finch
 and ncurses support works great. Ncursesw just means it was compiled with
 wide-character support... from the INSTALL:

  "If you configure using the --enable-widec option, a "w" is appended to
 the library names (e.g., libncursesw.a), and the resulting libraries
 support wide-characters, e.g., via a UTF-8 locale."

 Not to step on your toes, I think you guys do great work, but I noticed no
 one has tested it with a clean Solaris 9 system. I've seen 8, 10, and
 Nevada have run nicely, but we exclusively run 9 and so far I have not
 been able to get that ifdef to work on a clean FCS 9 build machine.

 This goes for #842 as well. I'm not going to retype it there since you get
 the emails for both tmcmahon2 ;) #842 is my real concern. #516 I can at
 least get to work if I just define it, but I still haven't been able to
 even start pidgin on any of our S9 boxes because of the pixmap segfault.
