What do you mean by this ``time out''?

IMO, yes. I think a sane system would already have ncurses
installed. Also, I expect that upon issuing ``make menuconfig'' a
second time you wouldn't have to wait that 1 minute again. Which means
that installing ncurses will leave only some seconds of compilation
left before you see the menuconfig interface ;-).
