In my /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk file, I *do* have LN defines as /bin/ln.

   LN?=            /bin/ln

That was the first thing I checked. I still think there is something
wrong with the ncurses package Makefile itself, because I have made other
packages without any problems (including creating symlinks).  

Did yours do the whole way through. The point where it bombs out is right
at the end of the "install" process.
