patch for gettext-0.18.3.1-r2

ncurses is now an optional dependency;

http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2013-April/077728.html

This is especially important for cross-compiling to platforms that don't support ncurses (eg, mingw) and the patch is very simple.

should be all set now in the tree; thanks for the report!
