Kernel 4.13.9 compiled in Pyro64

In Quirky Pyro64 to be more precise.
The build scripts and patches are uploaded here:
http://distro.ibiblio.org/easyos/source/kernel/4.13.9/
I hit a very strange bug. When the build script ran "make menuconfig", the terminal crashed. No error messages, it just aborted. I recompiled ncurses, the terminal still crashed.
Very odd. The urxvt terminal emulator is working fine, using it everyday in Pyro64. I googled of course, found the same crash reported a few times, but no definite fix.
So, changed the script to run "make gconfig", the GTK config, and
that worked fine.
