I found an annoying problem: the line drawing chars are not drawn
in xterms. This can be tested with talk(1), grdc(6), or simply
with a command like "dialog --yesno Test 5 15". However, it works
from the system console, using TERM=cons25 and TERM=cons25l1.
If using TERM=xterm-color from an xterm, the background color of the
line drawing character boxes is correct, but the character itself
does not appear.
I examined termcap(5) and everything seems correct. Even I substituted
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xterm.termcap for the xterm entries of the stock
termcap, to no avail.
Something appears to be broken in 4.0's ncurses...
