Checking further - the _library_ is correct, but the test-program is
incorrect.  It's not apparent in the 20070612 NEWS item, but the rewrite
of key_name() fixed a case where it was not returning the value as
specified in

	http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xcurses/key_name.html
 
keyname() parameter can be a key (0-255) or key-code (the KEY_xxx stuff).
key_name() parameter is only a wide-character - no key-codes.

So the fix for test/ncurses.c would be to use the keyname() function where
it's using key_name().
