I've started working on them. The first item was the reason why I added
the "B" test screen to test/ncurses.c last week (would have gotten to that
point the previous week, but had to replace my development machine).
I did notice one problem in add_wch, which is that it assumes the
data is a single wchar_t, null-terminated (which may be the problem you
were running into).
