Not iptables related. iptables does _not_ use libncurses.so.5:

  # ldd =iptables
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40016000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40019000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

Package dependency list says:

  Package: iptables
  Version: 1.2.6a-5
  Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.4-4), debconf (>= 0.5)

You're running some strange wrapper script that runs some odd program
which uses libncurses.so.5 :(
