Curses console client weirdness

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hi!

I tried to telnet to my machine and then run the ncurses console client from
there and it showed a number of display problems that doesn't occur when
running the ncurses client locally (ie. from the vga console client):

* Once the terminal is clean (after running "reset"), typing "ls" in a shell
  displays things correctly until the bottom of the screen is reached.  Then
  characters that are typed gets displayed on a single column (the vga client
  displays the same tty correctly).

* Mutt messages which are supposed to be displayed on the very last line
  of the terminal gets displayed right after the highlighted line of the
  selected email.

BTW, why does the vga client ignore the 25th line? "resize" doesn't work when
run from a vga client terminal so this might be that I misconfigured the
"hurd" terminal.

Thanks,
Ludovic.
