ncurses has a different API, mostly more functionality, I believe.
We have a different origin curses library in the system, so you'd save
on additional library requirements, if you program targeted at NetBSD.

(However, there is a ncurses pkg available, so its not too difficult...)

For details ask on tech-userlevel or current-users; I'm no expert in this
field...
