Nathaniel's build server is the only one where libncurses-dev is not installed in the system. And since libncurses-dev is not part of our mandatory dependencies (someone could very well use gconfig or xconfig only, for example), we thought that keeping Nathaniel's configuration as is was a good way of catching the cases where we have a missing dependency on host-ncurses. I remember we even had a discussion to decide whether we should build host-ncurses in such cases, or whether we should make libncurses-dev a hard dependency of Buildroot, and Peter decided that building host-ncurses was the right solution.
