It is not used by xfsdump or xfsrestore but by
xfsinvutil(8) for interactively modifying the dump inventory.
Looking at xfsdump/configure.in logs:
    ----------------------------
    revision 1.25
    date: 2002/11/07 15:19:20;  author: hch;  state: Exp;  lines: +7 -7

    check for ncurses instead of curses
    check for ncurses.h instead of curses.h and libncurses instead of libcurses
    ----------------------------
it appears that the switch to ncurses was made on Nov 7 last year.
