That host-ldd is then installed as $(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin/ldd, which is first in the PATH.
When you build uClibc for ARM, uClibc installs an host-ldd ?

Well, this time it was for MIPS.

Why is this ldd necessary ?
Probably not `necessay' for buildroot, but this host-ldd tries to be the Holy Grail of cross-compilation: an ldd that can interpret the target ELF files, and behaves the same as if it was run on the target.
It should then be called <arch-tuple>-ldd, like the crosstool-ng one, right?

But you're right. The proper way to fix this is to decide whether that host-ldd is usefull or not.
It's useful in the same way that cross-gdb is useful.
However, there sure is something broken about it: it should use the staging
directory as sysroot, not /. This would also fix the ncurses case. (Actually, also the cross-gdb could benefit from this; now you always have to do a 'set solib-absolute-prefix ...' for remote debugging.)
