Looking much better - installed and surviving a couple of cygcheck loops still 
running, ncurses build completed no issues, curl build and tests ongoing, top 
running, cron jobs continuing, X clients running under server - no issues so far.

Will push ncurses build to Scallywag to see if those errors are gone.
