My knee jerk reaction was: if a unix compiler needs terminfo (especially when it only does that to create coloured unreadable messages) it needs to be moved to pkgsrc. Same goes for a command line debugger. But if I understood Joerg's (extremely terse) objection: there should be logic in the tools build dealing with missing terminfo libs and this case needs more analyzis to understand why it fails.
