No need to build ncurses, just download and use:
http://invisible-island.net/datafiles/release/mingw32.zip
http://invisible-island.net/datafiles/release/mingw64.zip
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ezwinports/files/ncurses-5.9-w32-bin.zip/download
(I've just built GDB 7.9 with TUI using the last of these 3 URLs.)
