Hi

What is output of ldd birdc for 1.6.3?

I guess that the problem is not related to BIRD code itself but to the
change in libraries, as we changed the order of detected libraries.

Could you try to build and test GIT master branch (which is 1.6.x, but
also with these changes as in 2.0)? Perhaps there is some problem with
combination of libhistory and libtinfo on your setup, while libhistory
and libncurses works fine.
