ncurses is pulled in by GDB, from 300-gdb.sh:

# The version of ncurses to use. Yes, it's hard-coded.
# It's used only internally by crosstool-NG, and is
# not exposed outside, so we don't care about providing
# config options for this.

If you don't need gdb, you may want to disable it. Can you eventually
post the full error message ?

Thanks,
