Feature #6735: curses: support linking against pdcurses
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6735

Author: luislavena (Luis Lavena)

Target version: 2.0.0


Hello,

On Windows, ncurses are not available. Instead we link against PDCurses when building RubyInstaller.

Except that we required rename linking library to libcurses so curses extension finds it.

I would like to ask curses extension supports pdcurses linking library.

Attached is a patch that allows linking against unmodified pdcurses linking library.

I would like to port this change also to 1.9.3 in order to standardize building RubyInstaller.

Thank you
