How do you use shared libraries with curses routines?

I'm using Eric Raymond's ccs command (thanx Eric!) to recompile my
programs using shared libraries. The space savings is phenominal, esp. for
small (~ 20-50 K) programs. However, I can't get any programs that use
the curses library to link properly. If the curses library is included
then mucho redefine error messages occur. If I leave out curses, multiple
missing function errors occur. In either case, the link editor throws up
its hands in disgust and walks away.
I assume that there is a way to fashion a local shared library.
But the only documentation for shared libraries that I have is a one page
doc. in section 4 of the UNIX manual (I'm using 3.5 BTW).
If anyone can shed some light on this, I'd appreciate it.
Thanx,
