(1.5.19) problem compiling screen 4.0.2

["Jonathan C. Allen" <jca at sdf dot lonestar dot org>]

I get these conftest.exe errors when attempting to build
screen 4.0.2 on cygwin 1.5.19.  I can't tell if they're a
real problem or not because configure keeps going until
hitting the "no tgetent - no screen" error.  This is also
confusing because I have libncurses installed.

Has anyone had luck building screen 4.0.2?
