To repeat, I'm on a sunos4, and really I should not have changed the
NetBSD ifdef, because I have no way to test it.  Sorry for that.
Older versions of NetBSD may need the ifdef, though, so this might require
a version check to get it right.

My understanding of this change is simply that the original LYCurses.h was/is
forcing everyone to have their curses headers under a subdirectory `ncurses'.
The default for ncurses now AFAIK is to put the headers right in include,
no subdirectory.  I felt at the time that forcing a change of this nature
was the wrong way to go, i.e., you _can always add_ a subdirectory in your
compiling flags in Makefile, but you _can't take out_ a subdirectory.  Thus
this patch, versus making a dummy subdirectory and linking to it.  __Henry
