All errors after this warning are expected (due to the missing header file). It
used to be possible to build Synchronet on *nix without curses, but I'm not
sure if that's still the case (Deuce should clarify).

curses.h is usually just a symlink to ncurses.h (or vice versa). Example:

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 16 Nov 17  2004 /usr/include/curses.h ->
ncurses/curses.h

If you have one, you should have both.
