New description:

 At the moment the autoconf script does not properly detect libpanel on
 some operating systems (at least OpenBSD for this scenario). The issue is
 that for the libpanel test it is not linking in libncurses leaving
 undefined symbols.

 Without the attached patch to fix the test..

 {{{
 checking for initscr in -lncursesw... no
 checking for update_panels in -lpanelw... no
 checking for initscr in -lncurses... yes
 checking for update_panels in -lpanel... no
 }}}
