Re: crosstool: wrong assumption made wrt compression method of sourcebinaries (bz2 vs gz)

hrm.  the only ash I build is the one in busybox, and you don't
need busybox at all; perhaps you need to comment out more things
in ptx.config.  Or run 'make menuconfig' in the ptxdist build directory
and disable everything but ncurses.

Really, this is a bit rediculous; you might consider just
cross-building ncurses manually instead of with ptxdist,
given your troubles.  Here's how I did it:
