It looks like commit fc9c6e000f62 ("menuconfig: optionally use
pkg-config to detect ncurses libs") claims to already fix this. And your
patch is obviously done on top of that commit.

So I did some further, well, research. That is: I skimmed man pkg-config
and stared a bit at the pkg-config related files shipped with
ncurses-devel (for Fedora 20). And to me it seems
pkg-config --libs ncursesw

or
pkg-config --libs ncurses

should already add -ltinfow or -ltinfo if those flags would be needed,
just like that commit implies.

Is that how pkg-config should work? If so, I wonder why it fails for
you.

Thanks,

Paul Bolle
