I'm no Mac expert but this error message apparently tries to tell you  
that the libncurses library that is first in your path is a library  
built for ppc, not for i386 (you new Mac apparently is one of these  
Intel Macs). You may have accidentally installed a wrong package. As  
your original post indicated you have several libncurses libraries  
around, could you try and remove the offending one and see whether one  
of the others works?

regards,
Markus
