RE: broken ncurses patch found in http://sources.redhat.com/ml/crossgcc/2003-09/msg00009.html

Hi Dan;

  I looked (I think I looked real carefully) at 
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/crossgcc/2003-09/msg00009.html
and I copied out run_tic.sh and run_tic.patch from it.  The problem is that 
the patch is incomplete (else clause has no contents).  I updated the script 
to contain the most current patches on the ncurses ftp site.  The updated 
script, patch and the contents of 
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/crossgcc/2003-09/msg00009.html are attached.  

Please advise.

Thanks,
Ken
