Comment (by dx):

 Of those options, the following are in the "Experimental Code" section of
 the ncurses configure help

 {{{
 --enable-colorfgbg
 --enable-interop
 --enable-pthreads-eintr
 --enable-reentrant
 --enable-weak-symbols
 --enable-wgetch-events
 --with-pthread
 }}}

 Is there a good reason for all of these? Enabling experimental thread
 related features in production code seems like an awful idea.

 Debian and arch don't enable any of these. Fedora enables colorfgbg only.
