you can always override the location of terminfo at run-time by setting
the TERMINFO variable, e.g.,
setenv TERMINFO /usr/local/share/terminfo

I often build ncurses w/o installing it, and then set my $CPPFLAGS/$CFLAGS
and $LIBS variables to point to the build-directory's top (e.g., making it
$TOP, so it'll pick up the $TOP/include and $TOP/lib directories),
setenv TOP {ncurses-build-root}
setenv CPPFLAGS -I$TOP
setenv CFLAGS -I$TOP
setenv LIBS -L$TOP -lncurses
configure
(that's why I renamed the config.h in lynx to lynx_cfg.h - to avoid conflicts
when I did the same sort of thing with slang).
btw, I assume for 10.x, you've been trying the HP "color" curses:
-I/usr/include/curses_colr and
-lcur_colr
(I understand that the other versions under 10.x are badly broken)
