kconfig: resync curses check with Linux kernel

check-lxdialog.sh breaks on 64-bit distributions which are lacking
the lib -> lib64 symlinks (eg. some Fedora).

The script from the 2.6.35 Linux kernel is reportedly functional
on the systems that were requiring the current hack. See:

    11       The sstrip utility, to maximise the striping of ELF binaries
    12       (executables and libraries).
    13       
    14       Buildroot version, forked off the original from ELFkickers.
    15       This one is somewhat maintained by the buildroot guys.
    16       Supports big-endian systems.
    17       
    18       NOTE! Please read.
    19         sstrip is now deprecated in crosstool-NG, as it has a few
    20         shortcomings. For example: it breaks for PPC targets, it
    21         does not build on non-ELF hosts (eg. mingw32, MacOS-X...).
