>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.
