I've applied to next, with a few changes, see below.

I had to keep NCURSES_LDFLAGS, otherwise the iptraf build system calls
the host ncurses5-config (or similar) script, and gets linker flags
suitable for the host ncurses, and not the target ncurses. In my case,
it caused the build to fail.

Instead of overriding HOME, I've done it like this:

		prefix=/usr DESTDIR=$(TARGET_DIR)

which looks a bit more "standard".

Thanks!
