Summary: ncurses is probably OK since the only removed symbols are the _nc_* private interface. Thanks for the sanity check. The libraries libhistory libopie libpcap libreadline must be bumped as previously discussed. I'm not sure about libm since the remaining problems seem to have been fixed already. The others would be problems and should be bumped if anything can be shown to use the symbols listed, but at least nothing in the 4.x package collections uses them so we can probably get away without it.
