i simply moved the files to libncurses.so.3.0, libpanel.so.3.0, etc..
this solved the problem.. the problem is that internally the librarys have
the version "3.0" but the filenames are "1.9.9e" ...
btw: there is a newer version of ncurses available.. 1.9.9g, internally
that have the version 3.4, and they say that they are working on fixing
the problem with ld.so 1.8.5, but simply moving the libraries to
libxxxxx.so.3.4 and making symlinks from libxxxxx.so.3.0 fixed this
problem for me
