The latest version of sys-libs/ncurses in prefix-tree is sys-libs/ncurses-5.9-r1, but there are ebuilds in gx86 that depend on >=sys-libs/ncurses-5.9-r3, causing installation of those packages to break unless the offending package versions are manually masked.
Hello, I get this Error: emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy ">=sys-libs/zlib-1.2.8-r1[static-libs(+)?,abi_x86_32(-)?,abi_x86_64(-)?,abi_x86_x32(-)?,abi_mips_n32(-)?,abi_mips_n64(-)?,abi_mips_o32(-)?,abi_ppc_32(-)?,abi_ppc_64(-)?,abi_s390_32(-)?,abi_s390_64(-)?]".

I feeling a little overwhelmed by the aix changes in sys-libs/ncurses-5.9-r2.1. @Haubi: could you have a look at that? Can we drop the interix patch, too?
(In reply to Christoph Junghans from comment #2) There isn't so much magic for the aix (and hpux) here: I've found it easier to use libtool on these platforms instead of fixing the non-libtool build of ncurses. Actually, ncurses already provides configure --with-libtool to utilize (host's) libtool from PATH. But as this has it's own problems (seen with apache-things), I've introduced the per-package "host-libtool". Maybe this isn't needed any more and usr/bin/libtool from sys-devel/libtool correctly is elibtoolize'd - which is the crucial bit for exotic platforms. While Interix itself is about to die, the patch is accepted upstream.
@haubi: could you bump it please.
done.
