I don't think so.

I've tested linking a program with "-lncurses_g -ltinfo_g" today, and it
didn't work, so my conclusion is that nobody has been using the static
debug libraries for ages.  Hence I'm going to remove them, unless
somebody comes up with a fix to the build system that removes the
necessity of building the static libraries separately.
