Hi,
I'm having odd issues with headers on Solaris9 using Sun's curses.
it seems to put extra LF's at the end of lines in the header section.
It's remotely possible that you have a
        /usr/local/include/curses.h
from ncurses.  (If so, it should be /usr/local/include/ncurses/curses.h).
Mismatches between headers and libraries is the first thing to check on
Solaris.

Nope, no ncurses installed.

Going down the checklist, you might have $TERM set to "sun", which has the
opposite sense of bw (wrapping) that vt100's do.  (I guess it's unlikely
that you'd be running in a console on Solaris, but the thought crossed my
mind from recalling complaints that Sun had hardcoded $TERM to "sun" in
some of their installs ;-)
