This ITP alone is worth a gold star.  IIIIIGOOOOR!

I think it is a good idea and ./configure --help shows how it's supposed
to work:

./configure --with-installed-readline --without-libiconv-prefix \
            --without-libintl-prefix --with-curses

A quick test shows that this isn't sufficient for some reason.  If the
-ltilde in the last linking stage is omitted, it builds, though:

$ cygcheck ./bash.exe
.\bash.exe
  C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.DLL
      C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll
      C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll
      C:\WINDOWS\system32\RPCRT4.dll
  C:\cygwin\bin\cygintl-3.dll
    C:\cygwin\bin\cygiconv-2.dll
  C:\cygwin\bin\cygreadline6.dll
    C:\cygwin\bin\cygncurses-8.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\USER32.dll
      C:\WINDOWS\system32\GDI32.dll
