Backport of GH-156130.
AC_SEARCH_LIBS tries linking with no extra library first, so a curses library already in LIBS made the search report none required, which then became the module's link flag.
--with-curses does not exist on this branch, so the NEWS entry mentions only the LIBS half.
Sorry, something went wrong.

AC_SEARCH_LIBS tries linking with no extra library first, so a curses
library already in LIBS made the search report "none required", which
then became the module's link flag. Search with only the libraries the
module is linked with.
