There are two new superficial tests that are not installable on i386.
Regressions in the ncurses library itself should be caught in the autopkgtests
of its reverse-dependencies.
force-badtest hint added:

I tend to agree with zhjs; even if we could force it, cross-grading
ncurses-bin could get hairy.

Title:
ncurses/i386 autopkgtest failure
To man
ncurses-bin is in base image, and is installed as ncurses-bin:amd64 in
the autopkgtest i386 image. There is no way to replace that. So IMO we
don't have infra to test ncurses-bin:i386. And all the autopkgtests in
ncurses need ncurses-bin.
I think we should ask release team to hint ncurses on i386
