Now I get beyond this, but it fails at a different spot. Full log at

It's true that this Cygwin doesn't (yet) have ncurses, though it has
libncurses. But I don't remember this ever being a prerequisite for Sage,
and am hesitant to insert it without knowing whether this is actually an
upstream bug. My Macs build Singular fine and don't even have this (one
has ncurses-config). They do both have libncurses, but then again so does
this Cygwin!
