>Description:
	Under NetBSD 2.0 this package is linked against NetBSD's
	curses library.  When this happens, boxes on the screen
	are formed using alphabetic characters instead of line
	drawing characters.  Modifying the package to use ncurses,
	causes the screen to be drawn correctly.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Build chat/centericq on a NetBSD 2.0 system.  Run it, log
	in to one or more services, and observe that the bottom
	line is drawn using alphabetic characters.  Observe that
	as various parts of the screen are redrawn, lines are
	replaced by alphabetic characters.
>Fix:
	Add NetBSD 2.0 to the list of incompatible curses in the
	package Makefile.
