which contains:

# curses
AC_CHECK_CURSES
if ! test "x$USE_CURSES" = "xtrue"; then
	AC_MSG_ERROR([Curses not found. You need curses to compile pinfo])
fi

But without a definition for AC_CHECK_CURSES, I still don't know enough.
 I hate packages that assume they can use the AC_ namespace for their
third-party macros.  Can you find the definition of that macro in a .m4
file that gets included?  That's probably the place that's creating the
bogus command line.
