Installing R13B02-1: Questions on curses and gcc

[Roger Price]

Hi, Sorry if these are FAQs. I am trying to install R13B02-1 on 
opensuse 11.0.

The following curses libraries are installed
# locate ncurses
/lib/libncurses.so.5
/lib/libncurses.so.5.6
/lib/libncursesw.so.5
/lib/libncursesw.so.5.6
/lib64/libncurses.so.5
/lib64/libncurses.so.5.6
/lib64/libncursesw.so.5
/lib64/libncursesw.so.5.6

but when I try to configure with the command

    script -c "./configure" configure.log

the log ends with 
checking for kstat_open in -lkstat... no
checking for tgetent in -lncurses... no
checking for tgetent in -lcurses... no
checking for tgetent in -ltermcap... no
checking for tgetent in -ltermlib... no
configure: error: No curses library functions found

Question 1: Which curses library do I need for R13B02-1?

I tried configuring without termcap:

    script -c "./configure --without-termcap" configure.log

but now the log ends:

checking size of long long... 8
checking if we should add -fno-tree-copyrename to CFLAGS for 
computed gotos to work properly... yes
checking for broken gcc-4.3.0 compiler... yes
configure: error: This gcc miscompiles the Erlang runtime system;
                   please use a different version

The README says "gcc-4.3.0 has a serious optimizer bug. It produces 
an Erlang emulator that will crash immediately. The bug is supposed 
to be fixed in gcc-4.3.1."

My gcc is at version 4.3.1:

# gcc --version
gcc (SUSE Linux) 4.3.1 20080507 (prerelease) [gcc-4_3-branch revision 135036]

Question2: Which gcc do I need to compile R13B02-1?
