Probably more breakages existed - basically anything that uses ncurses
may be broken. Due to ncurses breakage, alsa-utils probably used
ncurses?*-config from your host system, and as a consequence also host
system includes. It may work, it may break in runtime, it may cause
miscompilation. On hosts without ncurses development files build failed.
