Those exact same steps work fine for me. So there must be something fishy with your CMake or your development environment (compilers, libraries, headers, environment variables and what else there is). Have you tried updating to Mac OS X 10.6.4? 10.6.3 had a buggy ncurses library, so who knows what else is borked...
