Personally I think that changing the script to work properly with a
POSIX shell is the best in the _long_ run, as it's the most portable.

The above seems like a lot of processing (non-portable, invokes an extra
shell, etc.) to avoid writing 9 words:

lib="libcursesw.so libcursesw.a libcursesw.dylib \
     libncurses.so libncurses.a libncurses.dylib \
     libcurses.so libcurses.a libcurses.dylib"


JMHO.
