The file fpcsrc/packages/ncurses/src/form.pp declares the objects
_nc_Default_Form and _nc_Default_Field:

There does not seem to be a good reason to do so, those symbols are not
part of the ncurses form API and will go away from the shared form
library soon, see #788610.
Apparently those two symbols are still in the libform.a library, so as
long as fpc does not support dynamic linking (#472304) there should not
be a problem,
This statement is incorrect, fpc doesn't dynamically link it's own run
time library but it most certainly can and does dynamically link C
libraries.
but please remove these useless declarations and ask
upstream to do the same.
Freepascal upstream: any comments on this?
