Try this one:

get the zip and then extract it to /boot...
5.9 should build with the steps listed in the .bep file:

http://ports.haiku-files.org/browser//haikuports/trunk/sys-libs/ncurses/ncurses-5.9.bep

By the way, what is the reason having ncurses stuff in the trunk? Nobody to care of it?

I know at least two tickets related to restrictions and problems in the stock ncurses version (#6424, #3810). There are also permanent "terminfo, termcaps" headache during porting console stuff too.
