Config issues, as you appear not to have installed prerequisite packages 
libncurses-devel, libpcre-devel, libreadline-devel in your build environment. 
Those package names should also be added to your cygport DEPEND/BUILD_REQUIRES+= 
string variables, so that cygport can warn you if the packages are not 
installed, and will be auto-installed so the package builds cleanly under 
Scallywag CI, when you push your cygport (and other sources and patches) to 
git/cygwin-packages playground repo or package branch or master package branch.
