Subject: libcurses patch


hi-
	we don't have news posting working quite right (or at all) at our
site but i couldn't wait any longer. i have a fun yahtzee program (good as
a short break between hacking) which makes pretty good use of the libcurses
library on tsx-11. the problem with that library is that it was missing
the fwopen() call, which apparently creates a special FILE which does
output through the curses window vectors. i made the small change to
make it use vsprintf instead and avoid the non-portable FILE creation
code.
