In runtime/parrot/library/ I see

ncurses.declarations
ncurses.pasm
ncurses.pbc
ncurses.pir

and I see tools/utils/ncidef2pasm.pl that'll convert
ncurses.declarations into ncurses.pasm.

But where did ncurses.pir come from? (Originally ncurses.imc?)

ncidef2pasm.pl can't generate pir, though I see that being suggested
by chromatic in http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl6.internals/21353

Was it written by hand, or is there some utility I'm missing?

Tim.

Looks like it was written by hand, yes. Anyway:
- having both .pasm and .pir isn't needed at all
- it should be splitted into 2 parts, which create libncurses and
libform NCI functions.
