Very difficult to know from this.
How did the tree /usr/home/steve/Downloads/ come about and what does it contain.

But you seem to be doing it a hard way rather than through the standard port
installation. If you try to setup your own tree it can be difficult to get
all the references correct and to insure the all the require components are 
present.

You do have the ports database installed at /ust/ports ?
If not then download it or install from your installation CD.
If you don't have the required ncftp3 package then unpack ncftp3.tar.gz in
/usr/ports/ftp. If you already have the source code archives then move them 
to /usr/ports/distfiles.

Now as root go to /usr/ports/ftp/ncftp3 and execute
# make
and if that works
# make install
