If you've installed ncurses-5.0 or usr-local from
http://cygutils.netpedia.net/, you'll want to uninstall that ncurses
package.  Use the RemoveObsoletePackages tool here:
http://cygutils.netpedia.net/V1.1/usr-local/Obsolete.html

Also, if you have any programs that were compiled with that old version
of ncurses, they will look for the terminfo database in
/usr/local/share/terminfo/*  -- but you just removed it!  So, set

export TERMINFO=/usr/share/terminfo/

and you're all set.  (New programs compiled with the new ncurses will
look in /usr/share/terminfo/ automatically)
