After I sent the initial email, I started to look at the 
Makefile for ncurses (and friends).  I knew that it had to
be a dependence problem, but quite frankly I couldn't determine
the (quick) fix.

I know Peter Wemm has taken on the task of upgrading the
curses library to ncurses, and he indicated there could be
some breakage for a few days.  But, he has been side tracked
by the $Id -> $FreeBSD changes.
