Congratulations!  :-)

I??ve packaged it in Nixpkgs:

  http://hydra.nixos.org/job/nixpkgs/trunk/guile_ncurses

And against Guile 1.9:

  http://hydra.nixos.org/job/nixpkgs/guile2test/guile_ncurses

I disabled the tests because I was getting 6 failures:

(With Guile 1.8.8, glibc 2.12.1, ncurses 5.7, on x86_64.)

Since the build is performed non-interactively in a chroot, I defined
??TERM=xterm?? so that the test would actually run (otherwise they all
fail with ??Error opening terminal: unknown.??.)  That is probably not the
best idea and may explain some of the failures.

How do you recommend to run the tests?

Besides, it??d be nice if ??guile-ncurses-shell?? would add $guilesitedir
to %load-path.

Thanks,
Ludo??.
