ncurses is available in pkgsrc for those who need/desire it.

Having it in base... well, I know I am biassed but it does mean that
we potentially have a monoculture when it comes to curses.

I wouldn't really term it "portable" more like "the same bugs
everywhere" which is not really the same :)

 "NetBSD is one of the last operating systems (or even the last one?)
 not using ncurses."

 I think it should be more widespread. There's already a third-party
 port (https://github.com/sabotage-linux/netbsd-curses), maybe there
 should be a tarball somewhere on NetBSD.org?
