RFE: Add ncurses extensions to LSB

[Jeff Johnson]

In the python appbat build we have:

+/* For LSB compilation, ncurses will be found but ncurses
+ * extension to curses aren't part of the specification.
+ * So we try to detect that situation, and work around it
+ */
+#if !defined(getattrs) && !defined(getsyx)
+#define STRICT_SYSV_CURSES /* Don't use ncurses extensions */
+
+#include <term.h>
+#include <unctrl.h>
+
+extern WINDOW * newscr;
+
+#define getattrs(win) ((win)?(win)->_attrs:A_NORMAL)
+#define getsyx(y,x) do { if(newscr->_leaveok) (y)=(x)=-1; \
+ else getyx(newscr,(y),(x)); \
+ } while(0)
+#define setsyx(y,x) do { if((y)==-1 && (x)==-1) newscr->_leaveok=TRUE; \
+ else {newscr->_leaveok=FALSE;wmove(newscr,(y),(x));} \
+ } while(0)
+#endif

So it looks like it uses at least newscr, getattrs, getsysx, setsysx
