This looks like a bug in our curses library, when the screen is resized so
that a window becomes completely outside the area of the new screen. This
happens to the status line (bottom, 1-line) window of ncmpc.
I need to check what the ncurses-compatible fix is for this - probably to
move the origin of any window which is not the size of the screen and whose
bottom or right margins have been shrunk.
