Yeah - basically any curses application is a nightmare to port to Solaris,
which has a bizarre mixture of Berkeley and SysV curses/terminfo/termcap.
Only the most trivial curses programs port easily, and I remember having
problems with vmh.

vmh should not be mucking around inside the curses window structure.
