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:

2010-09-12cc/gcc: disable complibs if not selected

cc/gcc: disable complibs if not selected

Force gcc to not link with some companion libraries when
there are not needed (because selected-out).

There is no option to tell gcc *not* to build the Graphite and/or
LTO stuff. They *will* be built if gcc finds the suitable companion
libraries. If we do not provide them, but the host has them, then
gcc *will* find them, and link with them.

Consider the following:
- host has suitable PPL and CLooG (eg. Debian Squeeze)
- user wants to build gcc>=4.4
- user de-selects GRAPHITE
- gcc will find the hosts PPL and CLooG, and will use them
- the user moves the toolchain to an older host that does
not have them (eg. Debian Lenny)
- the toolchain fails, when it was properly setup not to

So, explicitly tell gcc *not* to use unneeded companion libs.

2010-09-12cc/gcc: do not force use of non-vital companion libraries

cc/gcc: do not force use of non-vital companion libraries

While GMP and MPFR are required by gcc>=4.3 (to build the frontends),
and MPC is required by gcc>=4.5, the other libs are not. If they are
present then gcc will enable advanced features; if they are missing,
then gcc will (should) simply disable those features.
