ghc @7.8.3_4 build failure: Missing C library: ncursesw

[alexmptrac@…]

MacOS version: 10.7.5
XCode version: 4.6.3

The error message in the log is a bit weird because I do in fact have ncurses installed:

$ sudo port installed ncurses
The following ports are currently installed:
  ncurses @5.9_2
  ncurses @5.9_2+universal
  ncurses @6.0_0
  ncurses @6.0_0+universal (active)
