 On Haiku (no builtin curses, termcap, terminfo),
 ncurses from pkgsrc is used automatically in misc/screen.
 I don't know why it does not work on Linux.
 
 But yes, pkg-options for screen is strange,
 because selecting curses type but include termcap.buildlink3.mk.
 and overwrite user settable variable in Makefile of pkg is bad idea.
