Since the reworking of the build handling in recent (many) months "sh: =
./make_keys: Exec format error" is a long standing problem for =
buildworld for cross builds. The native part of the build execution is =
trying to execute the cross-build target's make_keys (that was likely =
left from a prior cross-build and now doing incremental-build activity). =
lib/ncurses/ncurses__L is not the only place that this can happen. There =
is past list exchanges for this issue with other examples.

I rebuild after cleanworld when this happens in order to force a full =
rebuild instead of an incremental one --but I only build one cross build =
target at a time, not universe. I've never had such an after-cleanworld =
rebuild fail: only some later incremental builds.

Luckily in my experience so far most incremental builds do not go back =
through those areas (such as lib/ncurses/ncurses__L ) and so do not try =
to execute make_keys (stated in terms of this example). So the =
incremental builds for me are usually effective --but sometimes =
lib/ncurses/ncurses__L is rebuilt.

It has been a fairly long time since my 11.0 related activities =
(tracking stable/11 now) have run into this but likely =
lib/ncurses/ncurses__L (and the like) simply have not rebuilt in my =
cross builds. I've no head (CURRENT) activities going on at this point.
