Steven,

Thanks for the quick action on installation of f2c.h!

It appears that ftb2 (what a strange name!) is nice and fast.  Just to
satisfy my curiosity, what is this box (I assume something like a P-III
running at over 500 Mhz).  What speed disk(s) does it have?

I started the build immediately after noticing f2c.h showing up in
/usr/local/include.  Everything was building smoothly until the curses
library was not found.  This appears to be caused by a lack of
/usr/lib/libncurses.a or a link from libncurses.so to libncurses.so.4
in /usr/lib.

The Linux loader does not recognize that it should use libncurses.so.4,
so the link from it to libncurses.so has to be made (go figure).
