Hmm ... well I'll give it a go then.

Ah, its statically linked. That means you don't need ncurses to be installed at
all to use it (or glibc for that matter). Heh.

However, a staticly linked exu can't be used in gdb it seems. My version of
exu is rather old, but since its the same size as Chris's, I'd assume that Chris
has a staticly linked exu as well. RC, can you provide a dynamicly linked exu
for us perhaps?
