CURRENT works out of the box, and so do 7.0 and 6.3.  6.2 and older
don't.  The difference between versions that work and versions that
don't is that those that work have ncurses 5.6 (with wide character
support) while those that don't have ncurses 5.2.

For now, I've fixed the port by conditionally applying the attached
patch when building on a FreeBSD version that still has the old ncurses
library.

Yes, 5.5 is still supported.
