 | >Description:
 | When xterm (or aterm) is resized with running ncmpc, ncmpc segfaults and 
dumps core. After using ncurses from pkgsrc, xterm can be shrinked and expanded 
without segfaulting ncmpc.
 | >How-To-Repeat:
 | Build ncmpc, run, then resize (e.g. shrink) xterm.
 | >Fix:
 | This patch fixed the thing and remove redundant entry:
 
 I think that we should fix curses instead or the program, whichever has the
 bug.
