Yup, there was a PR on this (7806).

It was easy to fix, even...  The only reason it was a problem to begin
with was that somebody (i don't recall who, at this point... anon-cvs
should be able to tell you if you want to know 8-) hard-coded the
"normal" screen size into sysinst (only for the background-ish
"message" window!), and this cause buffer badness in curses.

Thanks (for noticing 8-)!
