I did a bulk-small run http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/misc/richard/reports/20151022.1632/meta/report.html

This failure is indeed due this TMPDIR patch above as apparently there is an issue with the workdir being referenced in the manpages... looks like a bug in ncurses.
Here is the final message:
> ERROR: *** The above files still have references to the build directory.
> ERROR:     This is possibly an error that should be fixed by unwrapping

Just to prove it is an existing anomaly, try 'head -1 $PREFIX/man/man1/captinfo.1'...
> $ head -1 /opt/local/man/man1/captoinfo.1 
> .ds f. /tmp/man279042
naturally this reference doesn't exist any longer.

I also noticed [later] warnings to the effect that .home is not empty, so I now simply 
leave TMPDIR=${FAKEHOMEDIR} which saves a unnecessary directory creation anyway.

> +ALL_ENV+=              HOME=${FAKEHOMEDIR} TMPDIR=${FAKEHOMEDIR}

Anybody with any insight into this ncurses issue?
