Edit: I just tried compiling it and it compiles fine and appears to run, although it fails because of the lack of config files and the rest. It should work once that is sorted. I wouldn't know how to go about integrating it into maemo's system without screwing things up, though. I'll have a play around with it tomorrow and see if I can run it from a user directory, without using any init scripts and the like.

In case it's not clear, I've only tried compiling mpd, not ncmpcpp yet.
Hello,

If it helps anyone, I just published a detailed step by step tutorial on how to compile and correctly configure MPD on the N900.
