It seems doing:
wresize(stdscr, max_y, max_x);
as the first command afer the resizeterm seems to at least reduce the
problem somehwat: I couldn't reproduce it anymore. but that doesn't mean it
got completely solved as it is quiet difficult to reproduce.
Sometimes the screen also gets garbled big-time: output of windows gets
swapped and such (partially!).
