amd64 tested ok

My only suggestion is that sys-libs/ncurses doesn't need to be in DEPEND, because a) it is a dependency of sys-libs/readline, and b) it isn't linked directly,

x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -march=native -O2 -pipe -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -o units units.o parse.tab.o getopt.o getopt1.o  -lreadline  -lm

which can also be confirmed via scanelf.

I guess it was still there (with the version spec) because an old version did require that specific version or better:

http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/app-misc/units/units-1.74.ebuild

Right now the configure script still checks for termcap/ncurses/curses in case readline isn't available, but that should never happen.

Fixed in 2.00 and 2.01.
