Configure program was searching for ncursesw, so I've compiled
devel/ncurses from pkgsrc with
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=        --enable-widec

I don't know what wide-char functions cmus is using.
configure:      if check_library NCURSES "" -lncursesw
If all functions in gnu ncursesw are included in DF ncurses,
symlinking should be enough. I think. ;-)

If You want, i can check which functions from ncursesw are not
implemented in DF.

PS> Cmus is working with libncursesw from devel/ncurses.
