Seems ncurses 5.7 need build host stage for tic step; if use host tic

So I guess need to build ncurses host stage to build new tic

and provided a patch to that efect.

And in fact, we do need "tic" to run on the _build_ system to properly
generate the terminfo database.

Note: this is fully functional, but still requires a litle bit of
tweaking so that ${CT_BUILD}-gcc gets used instead of plain gcc.
But that's a minor problem for now...
