Not only the error message at the end, but also several of the earlier checks indicate that something is wrong with your C++ compiler.
You don't set the environment variable CXX in one of your bash startup scripts, for example? Or you are on a partition with a space in its name?
You may find more clues about what is wrong by inspecting the end of the file config.log in the directory /sw/src/ncurses-5.3-20031018-2/ncurses-5.3/
In particular, what comes after the line
configure:10062: checking how to run the C++ preprocessor
