This is IMHO a bad recommendation, at least for Mac OS X 10.4.* users.
The ncurses provided by Mac OS X 10.4.* has bugs; I reported two of
them to Apple, which are not in the latest ncurses upstream library
(so, they're probably fixed in 10.5.*).
Also, unless this has changed (I've been very busy in the last few
months), MacPorts prefers to depend on packages it provides instead
of Apple's (and I think this is the right thing to get the latest
bug fixes).
