Hi@all,

i invest some more time to search for a reason ... the base-system build 
breaks by building ncurses ... so i thought that it would be useful to 
check if it crossbuilds outside a base-system build ... 
-> i first tried to build it in the same void-package repo where i first 
did a base-system build ... i faced the same problem (what i expected :-) 
...)
-> next i cloned the void-package repo again and binary-bootstrapped it ... 
and then i crossbuild ncurses with ./xbps-src -a armv7hf-musl pkg ncurses 
... and to my surprise it builds without any breakage ....

Note: This is my fith day with void-linux ... so pls give me some hints if 
i did something in a wrong way :-)

Cheers
  Thorsten
