[Xen-devel] [PATCH] use ncurses-config to find all curses related libs

[Olaf Hering <olaf@xxxxxxxxx>]

After a split of libtinfo from libncurses in openSuSE Factory the tools
will not link anymore. In the URL below it was suggested to use
'ncurses-config --libs' to find the correct linker options. But
ncurses-config does not exist neither in SLES11 nor in openSuSE. So
check for both ncurses5-config and ncurses-config, if the latter happens
to exist in other environments.

With this change xen-unstable tools build succeeds again in SLES11 and
the latest openSuSE development branch.
