Which version of NetbSD are you running?
If ncurses is built as a shared library and it redefines symbols in
libc, then you wil trip over the multiple-symbol bug. This is fixed
with the newer ld.so in 1.3.1 and with ld.elf_so in -current.
If you're running 1.3, a temporary workaround is to build ncftp
statically linked.
If you're already running 1.3.1 (or -current), then please send a PR.
