My understanding of this is a bit different: these are all FreeBSD
makefiles, they use FreeBSD set of libraries, in which the only real
library is libncurses, and libtermcap is only provided for third-party
software that may want to link with libtermcap.  What porting do
you mean here?  But I won't argue about it anymore...
