I ran into a similar issue with menuconfig not finding ncurses library as well. After talking with IT folks, we used HOSTCC='gcc -Wl, -llibtinfo' to get it to work - initially - the menu was "horrible". . . . After some debugging of other problems, I discovered that there were 2 different compilers available on our systems: path1: GCC 4.2.1 - which had the problems path2: GCC 4.4.7 - which solved this and other problems. So it might be that the linux distro being used is not quite setup correctly???? Or it's a very old compiler? My situation is that the IT folks have tried to turn a Linux distro (RHEL6.4) into a BSD Variant-looking-messed-up-sort-of-thing. . . . NEVER had an issue running on FedoraCore22 in a VM on my MAC :)
