SUN/Oracle Solaris typically has two `curses' packages installed : traditional
Unix `curses' and GNU `ncurses'. Cmake builds itself against headers of GNU
`ncurses', but links with Unix `curses' with obvious result above.
To workaround, you could uninstall either Unix `curses' or GNU `ncurses'
development package.

Where is the ncurses library? From your cache it seems that it can not find

Bill, thank you for attending this. Only what I have posted (the final error
message) is from my build :
...
Linking CXX executable ../bin/ccmake
Undefined first referenced
symbol in file
wattr_on CMakeFiles/ccmake.dir/CursesDialog/cmCursesLongMessageForm.cxx.o
wattr_off CMakeFiles/ccmake.dir/CursesDialog/cmCursesLongMessageForm.cxx.o
...
It's identical to the error message of the topic starter, but I didn't look
into the cmake cache. Here is a setup of the `curses':
* SysV curses
/usr/include/curses.h # header (multiarch)
/lib/libcurses.so* # 32-bit libraries
/usr/lib/libcurses.so* -> /lib/* # symlinks to above
* X/Open curses
/usr/xpg4/include/curses.h # header (multiarch)
/usr/xpg4/lib/libcurses.so* # 32-bit libraries
* GNU ncurses
/usr/include/ncurses/* # headers (multiarch)
/usr/gnu/lib/libncurses.so* # 32-bit libraries
/usr/gnu/bin/ncurses5-config # 32-bit config script
Even if it's not easy to guess `ncurses' libs here, it's still looks like a
mistake to match ncurses headers to `libcurses.so'.
BTW,
1. On Unix systems (which Solaris is) it's preferable to use native
`curses', because it's mandatory, but GNU `ncurses' is optional. If other
things being equal, why create extra dependency?
2. /usr/sfw is one more place on Solaris where to look into when you search
for non-Unix alternates, like `ncurses'.
