>Description:
NetBSD's curses isn't drawing in the lower-right corner,
to avoid scrolling, probably done by shifting a character into the corner.

Yes.  This is historical behaviour of our curses library.  It's probably
sensible to remove this now.  Any terminals that can't handle it could
have a capability added to their termcap entry.


>How-To-Repeat:
use misc/dialog to create message box with:
dialog --msgbox "hello world" 10 40 

(see screenshot)

Notice that the lower right corner is black instead of blue.

(Set TERM=xterm to get colors, if you are on a console)
