pinfo configure problem

I'm trying to build pinfo 0.6.10 in 64-bit. The configure script halts,
claiming "curses is not usable". The command that fails is:
gcc -o conftest.exe -g -O2 -I/usr/include -L/usr/lib -lncursesw
conftest.c
and this fails because the order of the arguments is wrong. The command
should be
gcc -o conftest.exe -g -O2 -I/usr/include conftest.c -L/usr/lib
-lncursesw
and that succeeds. So my question is really an autoconf question: How
can I tell autoconf to fix the order of the compiler arguments?
My autoconf knowledge is pretty thin I'm afraid. I can provide the
configure.ac script if that would be helpful. The source is old - I
think the last real update was in 2007, with a small update posted in
2010.
Thanks,
Andrew
