[yocto] Unable to find the ncurses libraries when running menuconfig

If I do the following (from the same Terminal that *oe-init-build-env *has
been run):
1) cd
/home/nick/poky/build/tmp/work/corei7-64-intel-common-poky-linux/linux-yocto/3.17.1+gitAUTOINC+b86dd5c6f4_0caf16d385-r0/linux-corei7-64-intel-common-standard-build
2) make menuconfig
Menu config loads correctly.
So for some reason, 'bitbake linux-yocto -c menuconfig' is not invoking
menuconfig properly.
Any ideas where to look in regard to my custom machine config?
