Building alsa-utils for i686 on a x86_64 machine fails while linking alsamixer
because the linker uses the wrong ncurses-lib.

I've seen those alsa-utils-1.0.18-acs_map.patch.<ARCH> patches, but for x86
this approach fails...

The problem is, that alsa-configure uses the script ncurses5-config from host
to obtain the paths to ncurses-lib.

Perhaps a better workaround than those acs_maps-patches could be to define the
correct ncurses5-config:
