ncurses_6: Fix an install race condition
Both targets install.libs and install.includes install the same files, resulting in a race condition when running parallel make. This race is addressed in a patch file, making sure only one of the targets (install.includes) installes the include files. This will work properly (i.e.ncurses will install as intended by the recipe) as long as we always install both targets.

+There is a race condition when running
+
+ $ make install.libs install.includes
+
+As both targets install identical files. The remedy is to either prevent
+parallel make of install.libs and install.includes, or ensure only one
+target installs the files.
+The second approch will only work if we always install both libs and
+includes (which we do).
