I'm sorry, I'm not an expert on ncurses. As you can see I'm only using 
its termcap implementation, not ncurses per se.

You could look at term_epocemx.c, which relies on a cut-down termcap 
implementation in epocemx. If Zile can be made to run on EPOC, it'll run 
on just about anything.

You shouldn't need any more libraries (other than libc of course), but I 
don't know much about embedded Linux, and how the libraries should be 
installed.

You're probably better off asking embedded Linux people rather than me.
