Hello.
Since a couple of days ago may be a week), Emacs requires libncurses
development files (or similar termcap/terminfo) to link. It didn't need that
about a week ago.
The symptoms are a lot of undefined symbols, see below. If this has become a
new requirement, configure should look for these functions and if not found,
abort with instructions to install development files for ncurses or similar.

I guess that's because of this change:
99649: Eli Zaretskii 2010-03-12 Don't use termcap.c on Posix platforms
I'm sorry for the breakage this caused. In my defense I can only say
that it "worked for me" on GNU/Linux.
I guess you have libncurses installed,
Feel free to add the missing pieces to the configury to fix this.
Done. It now aborts if tputs isn't found in ncurses, terminfo or termcap.
