I must qualify my response is thet I am not OpenBSD expert (I have 
a CDSet on the shelf and my son has all the stickers plastered over his PC)

It looks like the linker/loader can't find the curses shared library.

what does the output of ldd say for ntop or trafshow? Snort and TCPdump 
don't use curses. curses is used for controlling a CRT display in a 
"full screen" application cf spitting out info on a scrolling line-by-line
basis.
