% So I found ncurses-4.2-8.i386.rpm, figuring that would do, and as rpm

% failed dependencies:
% libpanel.so.3.0 is needed by ncurses-devel-1.9.9e-6
% libncurses.so.3.0 is needed by aumix-1.7-1
% libncurses.so.3.0 is needed by info-3.9-7
% (...)
% libmenu.so.3.0 is needed by ncurses-devel-1.9.9e-6
% libform.so.3.0 is needed by ncurses-devel-1.9.9e-6
Install the other RPMs, then:
ncurses-devel-4.2-{blah}
ncurses-devel-compat-4.2-{blah}
ncurses-devel-static-4.2-{blah}
ncurses-devel-static-compat-4.2-{blah}
