I compiled correctly ncurses (1.9.9e), without to much modifications,
and even compiled programs that use it. However, the thing I had
to change was the /etc/termcap file. Basicly the clear didn't work
(setting TERM to linux). I changed the cl=\E[H\EJ to cl=\E[H\E2J
to make it work. Furthermore I removed all other entries, because
curses complained about multiple definitions.
Apart from this, it works just fine!
Note that you must copy your_cygnus_dir_here/etc/termcap to /etc/termcap
