+This patch is to make sure that `libncurses' is among the `NEEDED'
+dependencies of `libreadline.so' and `libhistory.so'.
+
+Failing to do that, applications linking against Readline are
+forced to explicitly link against libncurses as well; in addition,
+this trick doesn't work when using GNU ld's `--as-needed'.
