Problem compiling Texinfo on QNX

Hello,

When compiling Texinfo 4.5 (which came with teTeX 2.0.2), on QNX
Non-commercial edition 6.2.1, it is failing to compile info/terminal.c since
BC and PC are undeclared.

It seems that HAVE_TERMCAP_H is defined because QNX provides a termcap.h in
/usr/include/. However, this header does not contain the BP and PC variables
(amongst others) hence BP and PC are never declared.

ncurses and ncurses-development *are* installed on this system. However,
ncurses' termcap.h (version 5.2), which contains declarations for BP and PC,
is located in /opt/include/ rather than /usr/include/ncurses/. The
HAVE_NCURSES_TERMCAP_H conditional-code in terminal.h expects to find it in
ncurses/.

Exporting C_INCLUDE_PATH=/opt/include fixes the problem, but I wondered if
you wanted to adjust the configure process to handle this situation
automatically.

Best wishes,

Neil
