generally - just reading the code - it won't work properly.  You're attempting
to call resizeterm within the signal handler.  It used to work

man resizeterm:

       While  this  function  is intended to be used to support a
       signal handler (i.e., for SIGWINCH), care should be  taken
       to  avoid invoking it in a context where malloc or realloc
       may have been interrupted, since it uses those  functions.

(any issues with derwin are beyond that, of course).
