[Buildroot] tic compile stops

I've got a 2010.11 build that I run under Fedora.  It works fine there.
I was asked to make sure it builds under CentOS.  I built a CentOS vm
(kvm) and ran the build.  For some reason it stops with ncurses tic
compile.  No errors, strace just shows it sitting there.  I can't tell
what the problem is.

I max'ed the memory and cpu's available to the VM but that had no
effect.

Here is the output where it hangs:

Running tic to

        You may see messages regarding extended capabilities, e.g., AX.
        These are extended terminal capabilities which are compiled
        using
                tic -x
        If you have ncurses 4.2 applications, you should read the
INSTALL
        document, and install the terminfo without the -x option.

Anyone have any tips on how to determine what tic is unhappy about?
