ncurses is now compiled with reentrant support, which had the
unfortunate effect of changing the API slightly, by making the WINDOW
object an opaque pointer.=A0 Instead of accessing the members of curscr
directly, you use accessor functions:

=A0 curscr->_cury ---> getcury(curscr)
=A0 curscr->_curx ---> getcurx(cursrc)
