It got a bit further, thanks, but configure bombs out linked against
ncurses:

checking for ncurses version... no
checking for Gpm_Open in -lgpm... no
checking for initscr... no
checking for initscr in -lncurses... no
configure: error: Cannot link ncurses library

So I did:
configure --with-screen=ncurses --with-curses-dir=/usr/local

and now configure ran OK. Trying make (cross fingers).

Two suspicious messages from configure:

...
checking for library with inet_addr... no
configure: warning: Unable to find library for inet_addr function
...
/bin/basename: too few arguments
Try `/bin/basename --help' for more information.
/bin/basename: too few arguments
Try `/bin/basename --help' for more information.
./configure: test: =: unary operator expected
checking for ncurses version... no
