Summary: Configure failure on Cygwin - ncurses.h not found...

Initial Comment:
I am trying to install Cscope 15.5 for use with ViM 6.2 on 
a Cygwin installation running on Windows XP.  The 
configure script fails to find ncurses.h (lines 3705 and 
3737), and sure enough, a recursive search for 
ncurses.h under the C:\cygwin directory finds no such 
file, either.  (Make fails also since ncurses.h can't be 
found for inclusion during compilation.) 

Oddly, though, ncurses *is* installed.  If I run 
cygcheck -c, I get back that ncurses 5.3-4 is installed 
with an 'OK' status.  Possibly related, I also 
have libncurses5 (5.2-1), libncurses6 (5.2-8), and
libncurses7 (5.3-4) installed, also with an 'OK' status.

Is there anything I'm missing?  Some other package, 
perhaps?  Suggestions will be appreciated -- I am not a 
UNIX systems programmer, but I am motivated to get 
Cscope working since I've inherited a large project in C 
and I need to "digest" it quickly.
