>Description:
NetBSD's libcurses doesn't have idcok().
From the ncurses-5.0 curs_outopts(3) man page:
void idcok(WINDOW *win, bool bf);
If idcok is called with FALSE as second argument, curses no longer
considers using the hardware insert/delete character feature of
terminals so equipped. Use of character insert/delete is enabled by
default. Calling idcok with TRUE as second argument re-enables use of
character insertion and deletion.
>How-To-Repeat:
Code inspection.
