(I tried updating the ticket in trac, but that required me resetting my 
password and now the site puts me in an infinite redirect loop... trac 
is being wonky)

Anyway, unless ncurses is doing something non-standard to detect gpm, I 
don't think this should be happening. The point of the chapter 5 
toolchain is to remove /usr or anything like it from the search paths. 
DJ can you dig in the logs to find out what ncurses is doing to detect 
gpm? In the meantime, I've downloaded the gentoo live dvd and am going 
to play a bit.
