>Description:
When chat/centericq is linked against BSD curses it sometimes (reproducibly) garbles the screen with alphanumeric characters instead of their line-drawing counterparts from the shifted character set.
>How-To-Repeat:
Launch centericq. Send a message to someone and then go back to the buddy selection.
>Fix:
I worked around the problem with USE_BUILTIN.ncurses=no, not being sure whether that's right.
