That's a harder question.  There's two ways that might work to build
a shared library - I'm not sure how cross-compiling would complicate it.
Normally
        configure --with-shared
builds libncurses.so.5 (if the host_os is one of the dozen or so cases
known to ncurses' configure script).

(The other would be to use configure --with-libtool, but I don't think
anyone's tried combining cross-compiling ncurses and libtool).
