I sent my other email before I read this one. "HOSTCC=gcc make all" seems
to work ok for me, but at least one other variable HOSTCFLAGS is used that
gets set in /usr/src/Makefile. So CaT's right, you can't really do that
anymore.
Try: find /usr/include/ -name "*curses.h" -ls
On my system I have
/usr/include/curses.h
/usr/include/ncurses.h -> curses.h (ie a symlink)
You appear to have a /usr/include/ncurses/curses.h, but do you have any
others?
If I look in my curses.h file, it has #define NCURSES_VERSION "5.2", which
matches up to the curses dev package thats installed.

I don't know C very well, but line 130 in my dialog.h (which I hope is
the same as your dialog.h :) is
extern chtype attributes[];
chtype is mentioned in curses.h
typedef unsigned long chtype;
So I'm guessing your curses.h file isn't typedefing chtype to unsigned long,
so its default to an int.
