ncursesw ... never heard of that one before. Seems to be some kind of
wide-character version of curses? I doubt that we need to link against
that version since Hatari does not use wide characters. Don't you also
have a normal ncurses on your system?

Also, how do you run cmake for using the static version of libreadline?
Is there something related in CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log or
CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log ?
